Bug#230791: apache2-common: make-ssl-cert doesn't play nice with dpkg-reconfigure



Package: apache2-common
Version: 2.0.48-7
Severity: normal

I just upgraded apache2-common, and was quite surprised to be asked some
questions about my 'organization', apparently for creating an SSL
certificate. Since I don't use https, I had no idea about what would be
valid responses, and I think I may have given the wrong answers.

So, to take a second look after upgrading, I tried using
dpkg-reconfigure. However, the questions are not asked again. Thus,
this method of generating an SSL certificate breaks expected behavior of
debconf. I for one have no idea how to generate a new certificate once I
actually have a need for one.
