Package: munin
Version: 1.4.6-1
Severity: wishlist

Munin installs itself into /etc/apache2/conf.d, which makes Apache
automatically load access rules for the Munin configuration for every
address in Apache. This is both unexpected and insecure. The problem
is the following line in the postinst script:

  ln -s ../../munin/apache.conf /etc/$webserver/conf.d/munin

For this purpose, /etc/apache2/mods-available exists. If Munin would insert
its Apache configuration here, it would not be autoloaded, but would still be
easily loaded using "a2enmod munin". Therefore, I would like to request for the
above line to be changed to:

  ln -s ../../munin/apache.conf /etc/$webserver/mods-available/munin

This makes Munin installation behave as expected. If you want, you can display
installation hints as to "a2enmod munin" for adding a '/munin' to every host
Apache serves.
