The work around I managed for Ubuntu 15.10, is similar to as suggested
by @AngelPerez, though with a slight modification as follows:
Firstly I created a backup of /var/lib/dpkg/info/websvn.postinst as
follows:
sudo cp -r /var/lib/dpkg/info/websvn.postinst
/var/lib/dpkg/info/websvn_original.postinst
Then I modified the contents as follows:
sudo vim /var/lib/dpkg/info/websvn.postinst
OLD:
if [ ! -f /etc/$webserver/conf.d/websvn ] && [ ! -h
/etc/$webserver/conf.d/websvn ]; then
ln -s /etc/websvn/apache.conf /etc/$webserver/conf.d/websvn
restart="$restart $webserver"
fi
NEW:
if [ ! -f /etc/$webserver/conf.d/websvn ] && [ ! -h
/etc/$webserver/conf.d/websvn ]; then
ln -s /etc/websvn/apache.conf
/etc/$webserver/sites-available/websvn.conf
sudo a2ensite websvn
restart="$restart $webserver"
fi
Now I forced installed websvn with:
sudo apt-get -f install websvn
Now I copied apache.conf from websvn to websvn.conf inside apache2 as follows:
sudo cp -r /etc/websvn/apache.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/websvn.conf
Restarted my apache2
sudo systemctl restart apache2
That is it. It started working after this :-)
