Package: apache2.2-common
Version: 2.2.3-3.1
Severity: important

This report is very similar to #396782. When I originally installed apache, I 
replaced the contents of /var/www with my web site, and it worked fine. 
However, the latest version installed a default site at 
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default which contained a redirect from "/" to 
"/apache2-default/", thus replacing my main web site with the default page, 
without warning me. I myself did not notice until a friend pointed it out, 
because I used bookmarks to deeper parts of the site, which were still up.

If the default apache config must have a redirect to the default page, it 
should at least be conditional on there being no index.html (or similar) 
present in /var/www. This would prevent people's web sites being replaced.
