Bug Description
After installing the openstack-dashboard from the Havana pocket of the
UCA on Ubuntu 12.04, I removed the
/etc/apache2/
local/custom config in
/etc/apache2/
practice.
On upgrade the openstack-dashboard re-added the symlink which caused
conflicting WSGI Process Groups and apache to fail to start, which in
turn caused the package upgrade to fail.
I then tried removing both
/etc/apache2/
/etc/apache2/
added a dangling symlink in
/etc/apache2/
Eventually I was able to unbreak the upgrade by re-adding
/etc/apache2/
empty.
I believe if either:
a) /etc/apache2/
removed by the administrator
and/or
b) /etc/apache2/
the administrator
then the package postinst should not re-add the
conf.d/

Another way this could be resolved by admin, and therefore upgrade safe:
I seem to remember that apache2, now demands a .conf extension. Therefore a Debian friendly (rather than a rm) way of resolving this might be to do (untested):
dpkg-divert --add --package openstack-dashboard --rename \
--divert /etc/apache2/
