Package: apache
Severity: serious
Version: 
Justification: breaks local configuration, breaks a policy 'must'

>From apache's postinst:

if ! grep -qi "^webmaster:" /etc/aliases 2> /dev/null
then
    echo "Adding webmaster to /etc/aliases ..."
    echo "webmaster: root" >> /etc/aliases
    if [ -e /usr/sbin/newaliases ]
    then
        newaliases
    fi
fi

>From policy:

11.7.3. Behavior
----------------

     Configuration file handling must conform to the following behavior:
        * local changes must be preserved during a package upgrade, and
        * configuration files must be preserved when the package is
          removed, and only deleted when the package is purged.

We have a real webmaster user, and this change breaks his mail setup.
Please either ask if you should do this (with a low-priority debconf
question defaulting to no) or at least check if you are upgrading and
if so, don't readd the alias.
