I found the cause of your issue, the www/mod_sendfile/Makefile has
AP_GENPLIST= yes defined. This causes the port to use this code to
create the packing list:
Mk/bsd.apache.mk
451 ap-gen-plist:
452 .if defined(AP_GENPLIST)
453 . if !exists(${PLIST})
454 @${ECHO} "===> Generating apache plist"
455 # apache22
456 @${ECHO} "@unexec ${SED} -i '' -E
'/LoadModule[[:blank:]]+%%AP_NAME%%_module/d'
%D/%%APACHEETCDIR%%/httpd.conf" >> ${PLIST}
457 @${ECHO} "%%APACHEMODDIR%%/%%AP_MODULE%%" >> ${PLIST}
458 @${ECHO} "@exec %D/sbin/apxs -e -A -n %%AP_NAME%% %D/%F" >> ${PLIST}
459 @${ECHO} "@unexec echo \"Don't forget to remove all
${MODULENAME}-related directives in your httpd.conf\"">> ${PLIST}
460 . endif
461 .else
462 @${DO_NADA}
463 .endif
464 .endif
As well as adding the module disabled in the httpd.conf file:
472 do-install:
473 @${APXS} -i -A -n ${SHORTMODNAME} ${WRKSRC}/${MODULENAME}.${AP_BUILDEXT}
This is what is causing your problem with the module being disabled
after an upgrade of the port/package. Mk/bsd.apache.mk should be
changed to:
451 ap-gen-plist:
452 .if defined(AP_GENPLIST)
453 . if !exists(${PLIST})
454 @${ECHO} "===> Generating apache plist"
455 # apache22
D456
457 @${ECHO} "%%APACHEMODDIR%%/%%AP_MODULE%%" >> ${PLIST}
C458 @${ECHO} "@exec %D/sbin/apxs -e -a -n %%AP_NAME%% %D/%F" >> ${PLIST}
@${ECHO} "@unexec %D/sbin/apxs -e -A -n %%AP_NAME%% %D/%F" >> ${PLIST}
459 @${ECHO} "@unexec echo \"Don't forget to remove all
${MODULENAME}-related directives in your httpd.conf\"">> ${PLIST}
460 . endif
461 .else
462 @${DO_NADA}
463 .endif
464 .endif
472 do-install:
C473 @${APXS} -i -a -n ${SHORTMODNAME} ${WRKSRC}/${MODULENAME}.${AP_BUILDEXT}
Then it will do the right thing when
installing/uninstalling/re-installing the port. Give the above
changes a try, it should do the right thing. If it works for you,
send-pr a diff of the changes.
For a port that installs/uninstalls it's module the correct way have a
look at www/mod_xmlns.
