[tools] kickstartweb, mason, and mod_perl2

Hi all -

In attempting to evaluate kickstartweb 
(http://www.linux.kaybee.org:8080/tabs/kickstartweb/) on a box, given the 
need for a nice provisioning frontend for building boxes, I found that I 
needed to install the perl-HTML-Mason rpm, which, when installing from 
rpmforge onto Centos 4.4, installed just fine...

Until I installed kickstartweb and started Apache.

It seems that perl-HTML-Mason requires mod_perl2, which, of course, 
doesn't ship with Centos4... only 1.99_16

So I'm thinking that this is both a repo-related question 
(perl-HTML-Mason) and, tangentially, a "what if we had a gui like 
kickstartweb able to interface effectively with mrepo?"... ;)

Thoughts?

TIA,
 	-Ian
