Maybe this should be done through debian/rules instead of
debian/postinst?

** Description changed:

  SRU Request for Precise
  
  ##### SRU Justification #####
  
  [Impact]
  
  [Development Fix]
  I added the sed command mentioned below into the debian/postinst script so 
that the path is corrected at installation. Editing the file 
(debian/conf/proxy_html.load) itself won't be of any use because the path 
differs by architecture.
  
  [Stable Fix]
  Edit the file /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/proxy_html.load to include the right 
path using the following sed command:
  
- sed  -i "s/\/usr\/lib\/libxml2.so.2/\/usr\/lib\/`dpkg-architecture
- -qDEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE`\/libxml2.so.2/g" /etc/apache2/mods-
- available/proxy_html.load
+ sed  -i "s/\/usr\/lib\/libxml2.so.2/\/usr\/lib\/`uname -i`-linux-
+ gnu\/libxml2.so.2/g" /etc/apache2/mods-available/proxy_html.load
  
  [Test Case]
  1) Install the packages 'apache2', 'libxml2', and 'libapache2-mod-proxy-html'
  2) Run the command 'sudo service apache2 start'
  
  With the version in Precise, it will error out with:
  apache2: Syntax error on line 210 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error 
on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/proxy_html.load: Cannot load 
/usr/lib/libxml2.so.2 into server: /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory
  Action 'start' failed.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  Little, as Apache doesn't run currently anyway
  
  libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-5.1ubuntu4.1 running on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

  Expected:
  I expected apache to start including module proxy_html.load.
  
  What happened:
  apache2 failed to start and showed an error message
  # service apache2 start
   * Starting web server apache2

  The Apache error log may have more information.
                                                                                
             [fail]
  
  proxy_html.load tries to load libxml2  (LoadFile /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2), but 
libxml2 only provides under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
  (under 10.04 64 bit things are available under /usr/lib)
