Bug#387565: No way to specify RewriteRules in /etc/apache2/conf.d/xxx

[Uwe Steinmann <steinm@debian.org>]

Package: apache2
Version: 2.0.55-4.2
Severity: minor


If a package needs to configure the apache2 for its own purposes like
adding an Alias to the configuration this is usually done by placing
a file in /etc/apache2/conf.d/. If one needs rewriting this approach
doesn't work anymore, because RewriteRules won't be visible by the
virtual host it 000-default, unless it has 'RewriteEngine On' and
'RewriteOptions inherit' set. Unfortunately, there is no way to do
this from an installing package.
Would be great if a way exist do extend the virt. host.
