Sorry: I'm been (still being?) superbusy and totally overlooked you.
I understand that the big problem that remains is the awful list of
module names. I'd say let's retitle this bug and reassign it to
debconf, asking for an interface that can allow choosing between items
with short names and wrapped short descriptions.
Not that debconf would be my favourite way to choose which modules to
load, though, because if I dpkg-reconfigure apache I need to hit enter
at quite a lot of questions, before and after getting to the modules
selection screen.
Uhm uhm uhm... since you read the current configuration from the config
files, and write it back in the config files, why is that question
really needed? There are already other ways of configuring apache if
someone wants an interface (webmin comes to my mind).
Maybe it could be removed and replaced with an update-apache-modules
script to be used by apache modules packages' config files?
Just wild, raw, uninformed guesses, though...
Ciao,
Enrico
