There you are right, but that's merely a problem of insserv, not primarily Apache. Having that said, I agree with you here: insserv should retain such overrides the administrator manually configured among package upgrades, e.g. by providing an override wrapper which works similar to dpkg-statoverride. > I completely agree that duplicate methods to configure run level scripts > should be avoided.

I personally do not have a strong opinion on /etc/default/apache2 as said, but I am not the (only) person to judge here. > Maybe a look at other Unixes helps?

There is some discussion going on in Debian, in particular regarding moving to systemd in the long term. However, the Debian kFreeBSD branch blocks such a transition in the near future and it may or may not solve your particular problem. Of course that's a distribution-wide question again. - -- with kind regards, Arno Töll IRC: daemonkeeper on Freenode/OFTC GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJOsbWcAAoJEMcrUe6dgPNtpxIP/As0SqlSsSD7jV4+XNUYTz9Y hjSYP3v6+hiTb7RwWVqwoHex4yCqPTtwNQPMU77GseDgyWsVXg2HTUAeloRsaY6k TGa+sMfU5Y8MR6C1R/porT7CAgoI48Gv6Zj/y77t/63VTZt+Kscqmg/MwHa2jqH5 vlHEwulLnSkJLgVLy5ODFbC+4imsYmqwBNAEiw4DnBRWKdJ21LtmVrVSyIIshHAL OpyYkAg1ndr2t3BE4EWimO91AM6wZasZXNBSYusvIUVMTNaDnaUvAxOkXwLX3R3F VKj9zajykjS8+FzoqTxQqLgEHFZBKcOo5rKz83cazElmkptsVZi4Y9X4GnE/gzxd rP0I+E4TUuxmdDgD/LxQ6L1Mi1DX5K+Kp3Vjab5CM+zWdXZZsgU3OL/WfL5bGdZj DA5b3I9aXzcSGqUPTRO08Lh/5vbiu5jaAlgSj7T9mTw0iT/pFdJPbIyL2v2TfJmI 5mYPpqUP8AQPDTFf6umdw2isOamiMsw37I7LvzRGL+AtUGOvLF+CISEGFWTdJFoh kt00Jz/TJn4U/lQGBl4h/ZwSMEyIpEjQC2FSfprfq9yBPyMarzcbYAzanBidd84j BoGDlRwHxHaha33ArWc2LFl7ZSn7zYi3iqxpih7DS4B2WzDmto25u6bgLUlPwtxw 2NR4pwWNX4Mp0/3qo4ZP =Yd16 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
