  Description     : Apache module that sets REMOTE_USER from environment

mod_auth_env provides the ability to transparently specify the name of
an authenticated remote user based on internal environment variables
available at the time of the Apache authentication verification step or
a literal string. It specifically ensures that GnuTLS is loaded first,
so that Variables from GnuTLS client certificate verification can be
used to specific the Apache authenticated user.

We are planning to use this package in FreedomBox, for authentication
using client certificates. Here are some notes that have been compiled
for this use case:

I'd like to maintain this package, but I'm not a DM/DD so I will need
sponsorship. Initial packaging is available:
