Bug#301155: ssl.conf won't run



package: apache2-doc
version: 2.0.53-5

The file /usr/share/doc/apache2/examples/ssl.conf encloses the virtual
host definition in <IfDefine SSL> .... </IfDefine>.  However there's no
simple way to define SSL since in Debian apache2 is started with
apache2ctl.  The user might assume SSL is defined by apache2 if mod_ssl is
loaded, but this is not the case.  If SSL is not defined manually the
configuration file doesn't load and no error message is produced.  The
problem may be difficult for the user to track down.

I suggest the IfDefine line be simply deleted.  The ssl configuration file
can always be unlinked from the hosts-enabled directory if it is not
wanted.
