It was never a question of Debian creating more than one primary

Hi all,
I've been caught by (closed) bug #531595

that's where the problem is/was.
However, texlive-latex-base still refuses to install on this etch

Hi all,
I understand that I can setup a logrotate entry with sharedscripts, so
it will only reload apache once for all the logs in that stanza.
That's fine, until you want to have multiple stanzas.
In our case, we use local debian packages to deploy our clients'
websites, for ease of management.
