Bug 53323 – awstats ebuild wants to install webapp-config even when the vhosts USE flag is not set

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jean-Claude Repetto 2004-06-08 09:04:54 UTC]

I am not using virtual hosting on my server. So why webapp-config should be installed ?


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -pvl awstats
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] app-portage/gentoolkit-0.2.0_pre8   0 kB
[ebuild  N    ] net-www/webapp-config-1.9-r3   0 kB
[ebuild  N    ] net-www/awstats-6.1   0 kB


Expected Results:  
awstats should have been installed directly into the /var/www/localhost/...
directory.
webapp-config should not be installed

Sorry, awstats should have been installed into /usr/local/awstats, not into the /var/www/localhost/... as written in my previous post.

Hi,

webapp-config is our installation tool for installing web-based packages, whether you have the vhosts USE flag set or not.  Portage cannot correctly install web-based packages on its own.

Gentoo never installs anything into /usr/local, and neither does webapp-config.

Best regards,
Stu
