Package: backuppc
Version: 3.3.1-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
trying to access the web user interface to BackupPC left me with an empty page.
After the user name and password were entered successfully did Firefox only
download a binary file. It appears to have been a CGI executable, which
probably should have been executed by Apache, but was instead treated as a
binary download.
After removing the package in full (including configuration) did it leave a
directory "/etc/backuppc" as well as a new user "backuppc" on the system. I do
however expect it to remove the user and the configuration directory,
especially since it was a new installation without any modification or
customisation.
Further do I find it questionable for a package to create a new user account
"backuppc" when there is already a perfectly sound "backup" user account on the
system. I understand "backup" is a default user account on all Debian systems.
The least it should do is to ask about creating a new account and otherwise to
use Debian's "backup" account as default.

Hello,
A similar bug #788786 was opened long time ago. It seems that for a
reason, you did not allow Apache to restart/reload its configuration.
Best regards,
