[Bug 239048] [NEW] apache2 conf.d and sites-enabled oops

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apache2.2-common

In the latest apache2 default config files, the last lines are

# Include generic snippets of statements
Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/

# Include the virtual host configurations:
Include /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/

Any serious web server has its files under version control.  I believe
many version control packages add additional files to the directory; at
least CVS, RCS, and SCCS do - CVS adds a CVS directory, with a few
special files to point back to the repository, and the other two
actually store all of the repositories within a subdirectory.  The two
include lines above will attempt to load all of these revision-control
related files as apache config files, which will not work.


I've kludged this for my system with the following, which has me back up and running:

# Include generic snippets of statements
Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/[a-z]*

# Include the virtual host configurations:
Include /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/*-*


This problem is in apache2-common 2.2.8-1ubuntu0.2; it was not in apache2-common 2.2.8-1ubuntu0.1.
