Package: xymon
Severity: important
User: [email protected]
Usertags: apache24webapptransition
Dear maintainer,
your package xymon is a web application which supports the Apache2
web server. We're upgrading Apache to the new upstream version 2.4 [1]
(tracked as transition bug #661958). This requires some changes in your
package about how to interface to our package. You can test your package
against our package available in experimental [2] which is soon to be
uploaded to Sid. Please note, chances are that for the time being, third
party modules (e.g. mod_php, mod_perl and such) are not yet available in
a version capable to run with the Apache 2.4 web server. You can use
their (Fast-)CGI counter parts, e.g. php5-fpm to test your packages. You
can see an up to date state of modules being in the transition to
Apache2 2.4 at [3]. We have written packaging guidelines for our reverse
dependencies [4]. Please read this document carefully, it should be able
to answer most of your questions. Do also look at dh_apache2 (available
through the dh-apache2 package) which can simplify shipping of Apache2
configuration files.
In short, we want to highlight these changes you need to be aware of:
* Do NOT declare a strong relation against apache2.2-common (or
apache2-common as its natural successor). Instead recommend "apache2 |
httpd" in your package relationships.
* Do NOT install any files to /etc/apache2/conf.d/. This directory is
obsolete. Its successor is /etc/apache2/conf-available/ which can be
interfaced through a2enconf/a2disconf
* Do NOT call a2enconf/a2disconf in your maintainer scripts. Use our
apache2-maintscript-helper [4] instead. This is required to get a
uniform and stateful handling of all web applications interfacing with
Apache2.
* Please use the new authentication and authorization directives of
Apache 2.4 [6]. While the old style directives are in principle still
supported using mod_access_compat, mixing old and new style directives
can cause problems. Moreover, the compatibility mode may be removed in
a future release.
You can look at our Apache 2.4 packaging hints [7] for hands-on
tutorials.

copy at xymonnet/c-ares-1.7.3.tar.gz
* Fix includes for graph definitions (xymongraph.d → graphs.d)
+ Add a Breaks for hobbit-plugins << 20140519~
* Remove reference to /etc/apache2/ from xymon-client.NEWS
* Fix remaining issues of the Apache 2.2 → 2.4 transition
(modifies mostly debian/rules, xymon.postinst and xymon.maintscript)
+ Fix conffile paths in README.Debian and xymon.maintscript
+ Use dh_apache2 and apache2-maintscript-helper
+ Add build-dependency on dh-apache2.
+ Add lintian override for missing-build-dependency-for-dh_-command
(see #748688)
+ Enable Apache's mod_rewrite + CGI support automatically in postinst
+ Add patch to switch default configuration to Apache 2.4 style

+ Closes: #669776
* Let xymon depend on perl until after the Jessie release to make sure
prename is there for the data migration from hobbit to xymon.
* Add lintian override for apache2-reverse-dependency-calls-invoke-rc.d
-- it finds the fallback for apache2-maintscript-helper unavailability
