For users of Debian Linux 11.2 (which is the version I'm in the process of upgrading all my Debian 10 servers to), a few prerequisites are needed (for which I included some easy installation instructions) and a slightly different path to apxs. So, I added an initial pre-requisites section that lists the Perl modules (of which I find only CGI.pm seems to be installed by default), and also added a section specifically for Debian Linux 11.2.

Hopefully this will be helpful to others who use Debian Linux, and don't want to spend as much time as I did to figure out how to get a successful compilation.

GitHub isn't used for mod_perl development. I wish it were! This is strictly a mirror, and experience has shown that PRs languish here on GitHub for many years without notice. Refer to https://github.com/apache/mod_perl/blob/trunk/CONTRIBUTING.md for how to contribute to mod_perl.

Compress::Zlib is a prerequisite? That's news to me. Are you sure?

And are you sure CGI.pm is required? I think you can use Apache::Request instead of CGI.pm.

Also, the line Perl modules: CGI, and Compress::Zlib is not grammatically correct. Remove either the comma or the "and". And you have two spaces after "modules:" when you probably should only have one.
