Well, it does not make much sense, it would be inconsistent with the rest.. Also, you are encouraged to put all your local changes in awstats.conf.local, to have painless upgrades. >> This is a great way to have tidy >> configuration files, but it has a very annoying drawback: the cronjobs still >> try to use the unmodified awstats.conf file, and send me an email about this >> every 10 minutes. > > Can you fix these emails by configuring awstats.conf as one of vhosts? Yes, I could. But then again, which one is it? Also, if I make changes in that file, I need to make sure to revert them in all the other files which include it.. It is not good for maintenance, it is confusing and a bit untidy. > Please reopen this bugreport if the answer is no.

I think it is not clear in that sense, because it is not what one would expect. I would add a explicit warning about this. Which still does not make me very happy... Me, I will keep modified scripts, which then I will need to repatch on every upgrade.. -- Martín Ferrari (Tincho)
