Bug Description

In the /usr/share/doc/wordpress/examples/apache.conf are examples like:

       <Directory /var/lib/wordpress/wp-content>
            Options FollowSymLinks
            Order allow,deny
            Allow from all
        </Directory>

This is not correct for the apache server which is used ( Apache/2.4.6): It does not work it should be :

       <Directory /var/lib/wordpress/wp-content>
            Options FollowSymLinks
            Require all granted
        </Directory>

See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html for details.
