Let's make a list of what's needed. Then decide if that needs a new vhosts-
base package.
And this time, let's not forget to talk to debian-policy. I'll copy them.
Stuff I think we need:
- a path where vhosts are rooted
- possibly one or more skeleton directories for vhosts, to be used when
creating a new host (should be *completely* empty as delivered by Debian)
- scripts to create and deactivate (and possibly, delete) vhosts, these
should probably use run-parts so this thing can (1) be supported by any
package that wants to support vhosts, and (2) additionally use local
scripts set up by the admin.
Directory proposal:
/etc/vhosts/vhosts.conf
/<package>/<package-specific>? Is there any use for this?
/skel/default/htdocs
/cgi-bin
/otherkind/htdocs

create.d/0apache2
deactivate.d/9apache2
erase.d/9rmrf
