Cloudflare module depends on apache2-api-20120211 but there is no installation candidate for it.

What is apache2-api package virtual package for? There is no information anywhere regarding this except that apache2-bin provides it on releases Trusty (14.04) and above? Also there is a PPA for Saucy i386 (13.04) in Launchpad.

How should I deal with this for Precise (12.04)? Any thoughts?

I could just extract the deb file and modify control file of the clouldflare package and remove apache2-api-20120211 from Depends, rebuild and install. I'm not sure if that would break anything. Even if it doesn't break anything, next-time there is an update from cloulflare, I'll have to repackage it all over again.

  • Why do you want to install it, if you don't know what it is for? Do you have components/programs that depend on the package? – John K. N. Nov 15 '16 at 09:40

Version 1.3.6 depends on apache2.2-common OR apache2-api-20120211 where as the newer ones only depend on apache2-api-20120211. They should rebuild the package.

libapache2-mod-cloudflare_1.3.1_amd64.deb - DEBIAN/control file
Depends: apache2, apache2.2-common | apache2-api-20120211, libc6 (>= 2.4)


libapache2-mod-cloudflare_2016.10.0-1_amd64.deb - DEBIAN/control file
Depends: apache2, apache2-api-20120211, libc6 (>= 2.4)
