Hey.

Unfortunately #977014 has been ignored so far, but no I just noted that even
when one explicitly disabled apache2-doc.conf via a2disconf, it still gets
rather silently re-enabled on upgrading the package, which is IMO quite
unfortunate.


Please fix at least that, or even better #977014, in which case this bug here
would become obsolete.

Thanks :-)
Chris.
