Upstream applied this patch:

6.9 Beta is tagged, and contains the "fix"(?).

awstats-6.9 is in the tree.

Targets:

alpha amd64 hppa ppc x86
Comment 4 Jan Schubert 2008-10-11 21:14:23 UTC
works on ~amd64 but seems to remove old installations from htdocs if USE=vhost is not set, which is different from other webapps I use (gallery for example).
