By the way, I don't think analog should need apache. On Debian, the
dependency is Suggests: httpd (and lots of packages including apache
Provide httpd).
I don't understand the rpm packaging mechanism, except that I believe it's
less flexible that the Debian one. But anyway, I think this dependency is
wrong. You shouldn't require an httpd at all because you may be analysing
logfiles from another machine, let alone a specific httpd.
The rpm packaging person is new, and may have just made a mistake. I'll
chase it up.
