I realize that we may need to wait for this to be fixed in the Debian
package upstream, but I believe this to be of more importance than
"wishlist". In essence, there is no reference or dependency to the ssl-cert
package, leaving many users in the dark about this issue. At this point, if
we are to handle this in Ubuntu, (as opposed to waiting for the fix
upstream), we have a couple of options:

1. Use the patch that I have submitted above and add apache2-ssl-certificate
back into the apache2 package itself.
2. add the ssl-cert package as a dependence to to the apache2 package, and
upload that version.
3. add documentation to th README.Debian which states the issue and how to
resolve it

I recommend either 1 or 2, (2 is preferred, since it is the direction chosen
by the upstream maintainers), but 3 is an acceptable interim option. All
options would diverge the Apache2 package in Ubuntu from the Debian
upstream... I will be happy to provide a patch for either 2 or 3, but want
to see what works best for everyone. (1 is already available above).

thanks,
