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...
