My experience on Slackware 12.1 was different.
INSTALLING RIVET
Following Goose's subversion instructions got me rivet version 0.8.0 files
in /usr/local/rivet. Then I used these steps to install rivet.
1. aclocal
2. autoreconf
3. ./configure --with-apache-version=2 \
--with-tcl=/usr/lib \
--with-apxs=/usr/bin/apxs
4. make
5. checkinstall --fstrans=no
6. installpkg rivet-0.8.0-i386-1.tgz
Comments:
Steps 1 and 2 issue warnings, but they can be ignored. I suspect these steps
do what genconf.sh accomplishes in Goose's protocol.
checkinstall (#5) creates a Slackware .tgz file to install with any of the
Slackware package management tools. Checkinstall also makes .rpm and .deb
packages. Installpkg (#6) is the default utility built into Slackware.
Later, if I want to remove a package, I can use any of the Slack package
management tools for that too. Removepkg is the default.
CONFIGURING APACHE 2
This turns out easy in Slackware. You can probably eliminate steps 2 and 3
below and do fine. If you never use index.rvt, you can eliminate step 5 as
well.
1. Add "LoadModule rivet_module lib/httpd/modules/mod_rivet.so" to the end
of the dynamic shared object (DSO) support list.
2. Make sure your DocumentRoot is set properly. Mine is: DocumentRoot
"/var/www/htdocs".
3. Make sure the controls for <Directory "/var/www/htdocs"> are set
correctly. The defaults work for me.
4. Add handlers for .rvt and .tcl files to <IfModule mime_module>.
AddType application/x-httpd-rivet .rvt
AddType application/x-rivet-tcl .tcl
5. Add index.rvt and index.tcl to <IfModule dir_module>.
DirectoryIndex index.html index.rvt index.tcl
6. Restart apache with either of the following.
apachectl restart
/etc/rc.d/rc.httpd restart
That's it. Unless you want to use .tcl CGI files, you're done.

Subject: [frgeek-michiana] Apache2 + Rivet
Well, it appears I got rivet to work on Apache2!
First, using subversion, download the source code:
cd /usr/local
|svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tcl/rivet/trunk rivet
Then, change into the rivet directory (should be /usr/local/rivet):
cd into rivet (/usr/local/rivet)
follow the instructions for installing rivet:
(cat /usr/local/rivet/INSTALL)
First, you run ./genconf.sh to generate a ./configure script specific
for your system.
Then, you run the ./configure script WITH the following options:
./configure \
--with-tcl=/usr/lib/tcl8.4/ \
--with-apxs=/usr/bin/apxs2 \
--with-tclsh=/usr/bin/tclsh8.4
CHANGE --options to fit your needs. This was compiled on a Debian etch
||ln -s ../mods-available/rivet.load rivet.load
||ln -s ../mods-available/rivet.load rivet.load
||system
Then run 'make'
Then run 'make install'
If all goes well, you'll have a mod_rivet.so dropped into
/usr/lib/apache2/modules/
THEN, to enable it for apache2, you need to create two files:
/etc/apache2/mods-available/rivet.conf
/etc/apache2/mods-available/rivet.load
In ||/etc/apache2/mods-available/rivet.conf, insert the following:
<IfModule mod_rivet.c>
AddType application/x-httpd-rivet .rvt
AddType application/x-rivet-tcl .tcl
</IfModule>
AND in ||/etc/apache2/mods-available/rivet.conf, insert the following:
LoadModule rivet_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_rivet.so
then LINK the following:
cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
ln -s ../mods-available/rivet.load rivet.load
||ln -s ../mods-available/rivet.conf rivet.conf
