Hello Julien,

I've been quite concern by this issue, but in fact, I'm also working on
an enhanced version. I also think that this package isn't ready for
Squeeze the way it is right now, and I don't want to delay the release.
Please remove it from Squeeze, and I'll do a backport when I'm done with
the new code, which will provide quite some enhancements (like per-vhost
configuration and more).

Now, as for this particular issue, do you think I should simply drop the
automatic change of the configuration files? That's what I'm heading at...

Thomas
