Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install. As
per definition of the release team this makes the package too buggy for
a release, thus the severity.

>>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

Probably needs some fixup for the apache 2.4 transition, therefore
blocking #661958.
