Description: Overview
        --------
        
        The ``mod_wsgi-httpd`` package is a companion package for mod_wsgi. It will
        compile and install a copy of the Apache httpd server into your Python
        installation. If this is done, when the ``mod_wsgi`` package is
        subsequently installed, it will be compiled against the Apache httpd server
        installed by this package. When ``mod_wsgi-express`` from the ``mod_wsgi``
        package is then run, it will also use the same Apache httpd server.
        
        This package therefore allows you to side step the fact that most Linux
        distributions and MacOS X ship out of date versions of the Apache httpd
        server, allowing you to use the very latest version. It also allows you to
        install ``mod_wsgi-express`` where you don't control your operating system
        and so don't have root access, and the Apache httpd server is not
        installed, or its companion ``dev`` packages are not installed, which are a
        prerequsite for being able to build mod_wsgi from source code.
        
        **NOTE: Although this package may allow you to install a newer Apache
        version, it is only really recommended that you use this package if you
        have absolutely no other choice for getting the Apache httpd server
        installed. Always use the Apache httpd server supplied with the operating
        system if you can. Building this package if you do choose to do so, will
        take some time. So if you you think the install is hanging, it is probably
        still busy compiling everything.**
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        To install the Apache httpd server::
        
            pip install -v mod_wsgi-httpd
        
        The ``-v`` option enables you to see the output as everything is being
        compiled. This way you can better track that it is doing something and
        isn't hanging.
        
        To subsequently install the mod_wsgi package and mod_wsgi-express::
        
            pip install mod_wsgi
        
        Installation of each package needs to be done separately, you cannot list
        both in a ``requirements.txt`` file because the ``mod_wsgi-httpd`` package
        will not be installed before ``pip`` processes the ``mod_wsgi`` package.
        As a result the installation of ``mod_wsgi`` may fail, or the system Apache
        will still be used if available.
        
        If you need to install packages using ``pip`` from a ``requirements.txt``
        file, or other similar Python package installer, you should instead
        install the ``mod_wsgi-standalone`` package. This is a special variant
        of the ``mod_wsgi`` package that will ensure that ``mod_wsgi-httpd`` is
        installed first. Ensure you have an up to date version of ``pip`` which
        understands ``pyproject.toml`` files when using this option.
        
        To run mod_wsgi-express::
        
            mod_wsgi-express start-server
        
        You can then access the server at::
        
            http://localhost:8000/
        
        For more help on mod_wsgi-express see the documentation for the mod_wsgi
        package and/or run::
        
            mod_wsgi-express start-server --help
