Hi,
Could you consider adding some "include SOMEDIR/*.conf" to
debian/conf/sites-available/default inside the server
section?
Ideas:
1. Unless one replaces/overrides the default config, one has
to edit it to add anything. This isn't really helpful
on upgrades. Having a generic "include *.conf" will
allow to put most edits in extra files.
2. After installing debian web applications, users usually
expect them to be available directly on the default
host. At least this is often the case for apache or
lighttpd. With a generic include, those web applications
could ship a 50-debian_package_name.conf and be sure to
be available on the default host.
3. The directory SOMEDIR could be a subdirectory of the
snippets directory: Especially the config snippets of
(2) could be used to enable specific
50-debian_package_name.conf on a dedicated virtualhost.
4. SOMEDIR could contain something like "common" or
"default" to signify, that these snippets are included
on common virtualhosts, or well, the default
virtualhost.
5. I don't think, this needs some enable/disable feature to
start with:
All snippets are enabled only on the default
virtualhost.
None are enabled on other hosts, unless the admin
explicitly includes either all or specific
"common"/"default" snippets.
Cheers
