Short of making from scratch, is there a way to get apt-get to install a
copy of apache in an alternate directory, so I can run several demons in
parallel?

You can run several daemons in parallel even without having installed apache
multiple times. You can run the same apache binary with different configs,
different pidfile, different logfiles...

What exactly do you want to accomplish?

I'm migrating from an old Red Hat machine to a new Debian machine. Right
now, I'm running two daemons, compiled with very different configurations,
different log files, and so forth.

The migration would be a lot easier if I could simply install two copies
of Apache - in different directory trees, copy over all the files, and
then tweak the configurations as necessary.

Trying to combine the two configurations, even partially, seems likely to
entail a lot more tweaking at the level of changing directory paths in
multiple places and such.

I'm in the middel of migrating a LOT of stuff, so anything that saves time
helps a lot.

Thanks,

Miles
