Please don't; some of us still like apache 1.3.

Why bother to do this?
Why not just depend on libapache-mod-perl or libapache2-mod-perl2?
libapache2-mod-perl2 and libapache-mod-perl should depend on the
appropriate version of apache; I'm not quite sure why they don't do so
now. [Probably a bug.]

What would be ideal is to figure out what version of mod_perl the
script is running under, and then load the appropriate modules to make
it work. I personally haven't looked at it recently, but I can't
remember anything that would make this impossible.
