Hi Johan, Thank you for the analysis and the patch. I adjusted the permissions slightly based on [1]. I'm not completely sure that the directory shouldn't also be world-readable given that the configuration created by apacheds when it does start correctly is world readable anyway, but I didn't change that. Also, as I interpret Debian Policy 10.7.2 [2], the files are in the desired location. Since I'm not normally an uploader of apacheds, I'm going to give the normal uploaders a couple days to comment before proceeding. I am keen on getting this RC bug addressed, since it will remove several other packages from Debian, including zookeeper.
