Public bug reported:
I just upgraded apache2:amd64 2.4.18-2ubuntu3.15 --> 2.4.18-2ubuntu3.17
and now there is a file
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf.in
with the following difference to apache2.conf:
% diff -u /etc/apache2/apache2.conf /etc/apache2/apache2.conf.in
--- /etc/apache2/apache2.conf 2020-08-13 03:35:57.000000000 +0200
+++ /etc/apache2/apache2.conf.in 2020-07-21 05:13:31.000000000 +0200

# PidFile: The file in which the server should record its process
apache2.conf.in is part of the .deb file, see
https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial-updates/amd64/apache2/filelist
apache2.conf.in is not mentioned in any config file in /etc/apache2,
not in the init.d script or systemd service file nor in the changelog.
What's the purpose of that file?
>From the diff above it doesn't even look like a valid apache2 config file
because of the "___MUTEX___" prefix.
Is this some kind of leftover from a search/replace operation?
