Re: Question about maintaining the unofficial/parallel apache-lingerd package.

Yes, things are sounding like that.
Again, that's why I was asking for help about making a side-package.
I won't be surprised if apache-lingerd get into Debian only in a
parallel way.
Even though, I think that it can be nice for some Debian users to have
it inside Debian, and if this need someone to handle the maintenance,
I'm strongly willing to do it ;)

Don't forget that apache-common provides also the default config files :
$ dpkg -L apache-common | grep default-conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache/srm.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache/access.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache/httpd.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache/intro.html
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-perl
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-perl/srm.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-perl/access.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-perl/httpd.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-perl/intro.html
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-ssl
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-ssl/srm.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-ssl/access.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-ssl/httpd.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-ssl/intro.html
So apache-common-lingerd should provide the same files for lingerd :
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-lingerd
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-lingerd/srm.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-lingerd/access.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-lingerd/httpd.conf
/usr/share/apache/default-configs/apache-lingerd/intro.html
So I see a real good point in keeping this architecture, we are close to
the official package one moreover.
