Description Jacob Smullyan 2004-09-11 09:04:01 UTC
SkunkWeb 3.4.0 is now out.  The docs were being installed incorrectly in the previous ebuild, so I attach a corrected ebuild.



Reproducible: Always

diff against current skunkweb init file

The skunkweb-init file in the current skunkweb ebuild depends on apache2.  This
is wrong, I believe, for 3 reasons: 1) skunkweb doesn't necessarily need apache
at all, and there are use flags for apache1 and apache2, so it is inconsistent
to hardcode apache2 in the init file; 2) apache2 will give 500 errors for any
resources handled by skunkweb while skunkweb is off.  Therefore, apache should
always be started *after* skunkweb  and turned off *before* skunkweb is turned
off; 3) the init script supports a "configtest" option, which just tests to see
if the configuration can be loaded without error, but I believe it would have
the side effect of turning on apache!  

So for all these reasons I don't think adding apache2 as a depend is the best
default, although it might be ok in some installations.  The above patch simply
removes the depend.

Sorry to nag, but I can't resist a little nudge -- I'm the developer of skunkweb, so I can vouch that this ebuild is OK to check in; in fact, I'd say it is stable (I'm using it in production on several servers) and 3.4b5 should really go away soon.

Thanks Jacob, added to CVS.
