Seconded. still in apache-1.3.20-1 since the default httpd.conf enables modules disabled by me formerly and changes security-relevant options, I will mark it with severity "Security"... There weren't marked noreplace for the sake of a documentroot transition between 6.2 and 7.0, but this will be changed in 1.3.20-6 and later. |
The configuration files in /etc/httpd/conf ({access,httpd,srm}.conf} are containing usually a lot of manually added/modified entries and don't change between different apache versions. So it makes no sense to install at any update the RH-configuration files and rename the old ones to ...rpmsave. It's better to mark them as `%config(noreplace)'.
