I agree that if this is expected behaviour then it should be documented more clearly - specifically in the Directory section as well as the DirectoryMatch section.
I'm reluctant to suggest a change in Ubuntu for this, unless the upstream Apache project who develop the software also carry the fix, because I'm not absolutely certain that I'm correct. They may say that I'm wrong, or that Ubuntu's behaviour is incorrect in this regard. If you'd like to take this further, the best place would be on the Apache HTTP Server mailing lists (http://httpd.apache.org/lists.html) or upstream bug tracker (http://httpd.apache.org/bug_report.html). They will be able to verify for certain whether this is expected behaviour or a bug. The first thing to do would be to ask them if this is expected behaviour or a bug. You should point them to this bug that you have filed here, and also comment in here to link to your report upstream. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/947744 Title: $ anchor doesn't work in Directory ~ regexp To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/947744/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
