Please hint emboss-explorer.
Dear release team,
EMBOSS explorer is a web fronted to a command line bioinformatics suite. The
package depends on apache2 and drops a configuration file in
/etc/apache2/conf.d, but I did not dare restarting apache in postinst. Only
after the freeze I learnt about the "reload" option of apache's init.d script.
I already had a comment of an user who did not understand why it does not work
out of the box (apache has to be restarted/reloaded by hand).
Here is the debdiff from the Sid package that reloads apache in postinst. I
also added a menu and a desktop entry (note that `sensible-browser' comes from
an Essential package) and some QA stuff.
I would be very grateful if you hinted this non-RC issue. I think that
otherwise I will get user complains.
The postinst script is dh-make's except for:
if [ -x /etc/init.d/apache2 ]
then
if which /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d >/dev/null 2>&1
then
invoke-rc.d apache2 reload || true
else
/etc/init.d/apache2 reload || true
