After Installing HTTPD, I get the following directory structure in Settings:
/System/Settings/httpd (this is a symlink pointing to
/Programs/HTTPD/Settings/httpd)
A problem arises when installing Mod_PHP, which installs the file
mod_php5.conf into the /System/Settings/httpd/conf folder. The issue
is that it doesn't follow the /System/Settings/httpd symlink into
/Programs/HTTPD/Settings/httpd, but rather it replaces the
/System/Settings/httpd symlink with an actual directory, and then
installs mod_php5.conf into the newly created directory.
This results in the following duplicate paths:
/System/Settings/httpd/conf (a directory that contains the mod_php5.conf file)
and
/Programs/HTTPD/Settings/httpd/conf (a directory that doesn't contain anything)
/Programs/HTTPD/Settings/httpd/conf is basically useless, placing
Apache configuration files there doesn't have any effect. The behavior
that I was expecting was for the /System/Settings/httpd symlink to be
followed so that both the
/Programs/HTTPD/Settings/httpd/conf/mod_php5.conf and
/Programs/HTTPD/Settings/httpd/conf/mod_php5.conf paths exist and
refer to the same file.
I tracked the issue down to Scripts/2.9.9/bin/LinkOrExpandAll. My C is
a little rusty, so I modified the corresponding Python program in
Scripts/2.9.9/Functions/GoboLinux. Here is a patch that fixes the
issue:

I'd appreciate any feedback on this. Thanks.
