Bug#404558: apache2.conf has Include in wrong place
Package: apache2.2-common
Version: 2.2.3-3.2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
The Include lines (e.g. "Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/") in apache2.conf
appear above several configuration items such as ServerTokens and
ServerSignature. This prevents local configuration files from being
used to override those values except by abusing the sites-enabled
directory. The only other option is to modify apache2.conf except this
spoils the whole mechanism of keeping local changes separate.
The best (and trivial) solution would be to move the non-module Include
lines to the bottom of apache2.conf.
Thanks.
