Precisely why I didn't report this as a release-critical bug. ;) > Note that we could probably use lighttpd instead, but AFAIK the WebDAV > implementation is not as complete, and it is lacking the Avahi module. Not a question of which web server; more a question of having gnome-desktop-environment (and thus a default desktop install) pull in a web server at all. Actually, I could live with having the web server binaries installed, if doing so didn't also pull in the whole /etc/apache2/ pile of configuration. Investigating the dependencies further, I think I figured out the problem. apache2.2-bin seems fine. However, gnome-user-share depends on libapache2-mod-dnssd, which depends on apache2.2-common. If gnome-user-share stopped pulling in apache2.2-common, I would withdraw my objection to having gnome-user-share as a dependency of gnome-desktop-environment. I'll file a separate bug about this against libapache2-mod-dnssd, and mark this bug as blocked on the new bug. (I want to leave this bug open against gnome-desktop-environment both for tracking purposes and because hopefully it will prevent people from filing duplicates of it.) - Josh Triplett -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
