This is just a post to document some differences in webconf.lrp,
depending on where it comes from.

The short version is:  If you use Bering-uClibc, use the webconf.lrp
included with Bering-uClibc. (e.g. you don't need to do anything, and
can ignore the rest of this message.)


In the cvs tree, leaf/devel/nangel/webconf/lrp/webconf.lrp is the
version that one gets if someone follows the twisty maze of web links to
download webconf.lrp "on its own."

This version contains
var/lib/lrpkg/webconf.exclude.list; this file excludes:
        etc/webconf/*
        var/webconf/*

The Bering-uClibc team has decided that those directories should be
owned by the mhttp(s) package, due to other file ownership issues.

This means a webconf.lrp built with buildtool.pl for a Bering-uClibc
will (correctly) *not* contain webconf.exclude.list.  However, removing
the exclude.list from the binary .lrp file referenced above may break
backups on "classic" bering.

After a discussion with KP Kirchdoerfer, the binary webconf.lrp in
leaf/devel/nangel/webconf/lrp/webconf.lrp  will continue to have the
webconf.exclude.list.   The offical source code for all versions will
continue to be leaf/src/config/webconf.

In the past, whenever leaf/src/config/webconf changes, I committed a
webconf-[date].tar.gz in the Bering-uClibc source tree, and updated
buildtool.* to point to the new webconf source tarball.  I will continue
to do so, until told otherwise by the Bering-uClibc team.
