retitle 535282 make info2www usable as installed
severity 535282 wishlist
thanks

Since README.Debian explains how to configure info2www before making
this useful (with typo), this is not really a bug but wishlist.

Since there are other similar packages in archive which do not suffer
this phenomena, we should make this useful as installed like others.

I think the last fix to #173246 was well intended one but was a bit
rough solution.

First, policy only say "Web Applications should try to avoid storing
files in the Web Document Root."  This is should.  Recommendation for use
of /usr/share/doc/package directory are meant for for documents of each
packages.

Solution by dwww using /etc/apache/conf.d/dwww symlink and
/etc/dwww/apache.conf seems to be the best solution to avoid security
concern raised by #173246.

For now, we work around problem with:
 $ sudo ln -s /var/lib/info2www/ /var/www
as described in #493366

Although trivial ones, it is sad to see 2 year old patches from
[email protected] were not touched at all.  Uwe, have you noticed patches
in BTS.
