Package: drupal5
Version: 5.5-1
Severity: normal

As far as I can tell, when using the "public" download method, it is not
possible to relocate the files directory outside of /usr/share/drupal
(except with a hardcoded symlink).

This is totally broken when you want to host multiple sites, each with
their own files directory.

The problem is that the "File system path" is used for two reasons:
1. inside drupal so it can access the file.
2. it is also passed to the browser.

I want to be able to tell drupal that the file is available at:
/var/local/sitename/files/xyz.jpg

But have the browser pick up the file from:
/files/xyz.jpg

As far as I can tell, this is not possible, as there is only one
setting that is used in both places.

For now, I will use the private method, but I don't really need to
control access to the files so it would seem like an overkill.
