Package: apache2-common Version: 2.0.55-4 Severity: normal It should be possible to upgrade apache without stopping it: typical case is a security upgrade. You don't want to have downtime, or irritate users with currently running sessions.
apache2ctl graceful is designed to handle this situation, so why can't apache2's postinst script use it? There are cases where this won't work, e.g. if some directory under /var is moved, but these will not be common cases, and can be handled as necessary. I may be missing something, but more graceful behaviour in the common case is still desirable. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages apache2-common depends on: ii apache2-utils 2.0.55-4 utility programs for webservers ii debconf 1.5.0 Debian configuration management sy ii debianutils 2.16 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.3.6-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdb4.3 4.3.29-4.1 Berkeley v4.3 Database Libraries [ ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3.2 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libgcc1 1:4.1.0-4 GCC support library ii libmagic1 4.17-1 File type determination library us ii lsb-base 3.1-5 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii mime-support 3.36-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap ii net-tools 1.60-17 The NET-3 networking toolkit ii openssl 0.9.8a-8 Secure Socket Layer (SSL) binary a ii ssl-cert 1.0.12 Simple debconf wrapper for openssl apache2-common recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
