Package: otrs2 Version: 3.1.7+dfsg1-6 Severity: normalDear Maintainer, when installing OTRS and choosing to not have dpkg automatically configure the database setup, the installation fails with the following error: Setting up libxml-feedpp-perl (0.43-1) ...

I think the installer should not install an Apache config at all (nor should it activate it), but instead just supply and point the user to a sample config (similar to e.g. what the mediawiki package does).
I do not think that I will and can change this. otrs heavy depends on a working database, also the cronjobs etc. So it requires a working database!
