Hi Russ, I'm finally coming back to the dh_apache issues you filed long ago. > I believe you should therefore just remove this conditional and run this > code in postinst unconditionally. Your explanation sounds right to me. However, we do not unconditionally disable the module either. We only do so in case of postrm purge|remove to ensure the web server is not reloaded without need. This makes the abort-upgrade|abort-remove|abort-deconfigure operations a no op with respect to Apache maintainer scripts. Our goal should be to minimize the impact of an upgrade. Many people tend to be annoyed when the web server is restarted during upgrades. Hence, I do believe "configure" is correct, but I might try some of the abort/failure cases you mentioned before deciding what to do eventually with your bug. Does my explanation make sense to you? -- with kind regards, Arno Töll IRC: daemonkeeper on Freenode/OFTC GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D
