The gallery package has a debconf question that asks if you want apache{,-ssl,-perl,2} automatically configured. If you do not want the apache{,-ssl,-perl,2} automatically configured, select no when prompted. There are numerous other web based packages that offer similar auto-apache configuration options. I don't see this as a bug and am thus closing this bug. --=20 ---------------------------- Michael Schultheiss E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --FL5UXtIhxfXey3p5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFCJK31yJBzD6P54w4RAiLJAJ9x0F0SP15XKR6/v+CvbJxIdKOBgACfXysg gcPerlrBT2tquZh5pBCVfGo= =0k1D -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --FL5UXtIhxfXey3p5-- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
