I'll shortly be starting work on moving apache-related packages.
To make life easier for everyone - at the expense of a one-off bit of pain -
I'm thinking of splitting the apache packages into TWO categories:
- www-apache1 for apache1 packages
- www-apache2 for apache2 packages
This will be a giant leap towards getting rid of the apache USE flag pain, and
the associated noise / bugs that result from this.
The main downside with this proposal is that I haven't figured out an
automatic way for users to upgrade to the correct apache1/apache2 packages
after the split. Any ideas would be welcome.
Best regards,
Stu
