Hi,

there is a repository for mod_chroot which can be integrated into yast2, so you won't have to compile your own mod_chroot. Look at http://software.opensuse.org and search for mod_chroot. It's also available there for other versions than 11.2. Hopefully this makes upgrading Apache or a whole system a little less painful.
