examples-mysql not adapted to ubuntu

[Rolf Leggewie]

Binary package hint: wordpress

Hi,

/usr/share/doc/wordpress/examples/setup-mysql should be adapted to fit the situation of ubuntu. For example "ln: creating symbolic link `/srv/www/blog.leggewie.org' to `/usr/share/wordpress': No such file or directory" makes no sense. The link should rather go to /var/www/blog.leggewie.org by default, I guess.

Regards

Rolf

On the other hand, I think it's trying to put it in the right place. The FHS says that server content should go in /srv, so Debian/Ubuntu's Apache2 is breaching the FHS, while Wordpress is obeying it. What do others think?

Don't know what it should be, but can confirm that I just ran into this. I don't really care which way we go, but the things in the repos should at least match.

[Dan O'Huiginn (daniel-ohuiginn)]

Whether or not apache ever starts using /srv, it won't be doing so quickly. So let's fix this bug first, and work on the policy later.

Fixing this is just a case of editing debian/apache.conf in the source package

I have created a patch for this bug.
