apr

Summary

Downloads and compiles the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) library from the Apache distribution mirror, installing it into $ZPFX — a prerequisite for building Subversion from source.

Syntax / Usage

zi pack for apr

One profile: default.

Details

• Provides: APR static and shared libraries and headers under $ZPFX (no shell binary or completion).
• Profile ices: is-snippet, as"null|readurl", nocompile"!", lucid, dlink"https://.*/apr-%VERSION%.tar.bz2" (uses the readurl annex to resolve the latest download link), atclone (runs ziextract --move --auto then ./configure --prefix=$ZPFX && make && make install), atpull"%atclone".
• Requires the readurl annex (zdharma-continuum/zinit-annex-readurl) to resolve the mirror link.
• Intended as a build dependency for the svn package, not as a standalone tool.
