Public bug reported:

After upgrading a (32 bit server) to gutsy, apache group auth does not
work anymore EVEN after modifying (so, yes, I know I should modify ldap
auth related parts of my configuration files) the configuration based on
documention from the apache2 site:

AuthBasicProvider ldap
AuthType basic
AuthName "Access point"
AuthLDAPGroupAttributeIsDN on
AuthLDAPGroupAttribute uniquemember
AuthzLDAPAuthoritative on
AuthLDAPURL ldap://localhost/ou=users,dc=somewhere,dc=net?uid
Require ldap-group cn=The Group, ou=groups, dc=somewhere,dc=net

This works, I mean apache webserver starts, but when I try to
authenticate myself that did not work and I got this in error.log:

[Mon Feb 25 22:01:03 2008] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] access to /test/ failed, reason: unknown require directive:"ldap-group cn=The Group, ou=groups, dc=somewhere, dc=net"
[Mon Feb 25 22:01:03 2008] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] access to /test/ failed, reason: user lgb not allowed access

As you can see I've got 'unknown require directive:"ldap-group ....'
which is strange since according the documentation this IS the format I
should use in case of apache2.2. So I'm totally confused now.

Version of apache2,  apache2.2-common,  apache2-utils and apache2-mpm-
prefork package are 2.2.4-3ubuntu0.1
