Package: phpmyadmin
Version: 3:2.6.2-rc1-1
Severity: wishlist

the htaccess from phpmyadmin "enable" extension and
access. Thus it override the ones in the apache.conf.

It looks quite dangerous security wise. Could the overlapping
parameters (order, allow mostly) be  removed from one of the file
? 

Regards
Alban

PS: i have looked around for why phpmyadmin add a symlink in
/var/www (which could nfs mounted from another server
theorically ). /var being for data my  opinion is that /var/www
is an artefact from the days when there was only static http to feed the
server .(it is also not part of the FHS being replaced by /srv
that most admin named /data before or used /home/http/) .It
could be removed from future distributions ...
Again is there a place to discuss such matters ?
