Comment 5 for bug 548261

In 0.9.0 the Apache2 config file handling is much better, thank you. But it will still break a system with other virtual hosts using SSL. This isn't a nice user experience.

I suggest that the config file get installed in to /etc/apache2/sites-available (not /etc/apache2/conf.d) and a debconf question is used to optionally use a2ensite to enabled it. With some suitable warning about potential breakage.

This allows the admin to modify the config file before possibly breaking things. It also satisfies the requirement of Nigel and Martyn of being able to get a running mahara install by just using apt-get install.
