[Bug 1639809] [NEW] Problem with Apache & Subversion versions in Trusty

[François Tissandier]

Public bug reported:

With a Trusty server configured with backports enabled, I met this
problem :

-installed Apache2
-installed subversion
-installed libapache2-svn

Apache won't start, in version 2.4.10 :

apache2: Syntax error on line 140 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on
line 2 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/authz_svn.load: Cannot load
/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_authz_svn.so into server:
/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_authz_svn.so: undefined symbol: ap_hook_force_authn

I have deactivated the backports, then removed and reinstalled Apache,
this time it comes in version 2.4.7, and is working fine with the SVN
module. Apparently Apache version was too recent, and not compatible
with the 1.8.8 version of Subversion.
