Bug#265628: apache: Removing a pckage should NEVER remove log files without asking the user!



Package: apache
Version: 1.3.31-3
Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss

Purging apache (needed to remove logrotate.d file etc) removes /var/log/apache
which removes past web logs, and depending on the configuration may remove
apache 2 logs as well.
