Package: request-tracker3.8
Version: 3.8.8-5
Severity: normal
We have $WebPath set to an empty string as we're hosting RT using
virtual hosts (and hence no path dispatching is needed).
The variable is set using debconf dialog.
When upgrading the package this variable is reset to its default
value, "/rt". Other variables survive upgrading.
I first faced this when I was upgrading stock request-tracking3.8 from
Squeeze to the set of throw-away packages provided by Dominic to test
his fix for #595054 (race condition), and now I encountered it again
when upgrading to the actual version (containing the said fix).
I'm not sure but possibly an empty string is treated in a somehow
special manner by the debconf machinery or RT maintainer scripts.
By the way when I was setting RT for the first time, I tried to set that
variable to "/" as I thought it was a sensible way to specify "no path
component" but it turned out RT disliked it and failed to find various
resources such as images, styles and scripts, so I figured out an empty
string works OK.
