Well I admit I am a bit confused.  The machine on which this happened
was setup about 6 months ago, and has been sid from day 1.  The
httpd.conf file I had listed SSLCacheServerPort 443


I found the old bug report and changed it to
SSLCacheServerPort /var/run/gcache_port


I checked on a couple of woody boxes, and their conf files list
SSLCacheServerPort /var/run/gcache_port

So at first glance it seems that
SSLCacheServerPort /var/run/gcache_port

is correct for all versions of apache-ssl

How I got the other httpd.conf entry is a bit of a mystery, but I surely
can't be alone in this.

The "patch" was just to make sure the config file listed the correct
option, but as you suggest this may present a problem.

Perhaps you could pop up a debconf dialog box at least alerting people
to a potential problem in configuration?

Thanks

Tom
