I get this result:

]# rpm -e httpd

This seems to be a catch-22 for me. That first dependency is the mod_perl 
version that belongs with apache1.3; which is the version I'd prefer to use 
anyway as I'm thinking it's still considered more stable and also more 
popular. However the installer set up apache2 for me w/o asking, so 
reinstalling doesn't even seem like it would help, unless of course I 
reinstalled w/o apache at all and then manually installed 1.3 after.

Is that really necessary though?
