• Bug#265628: apache: Removing a pckage should NEVER remove log files wit

    From Russell Coker@1:229/2 to All on Sat Aug 14 06:10:08 2004

    Package: apache
    Version: 1.3.31-3
    Severity: critical
    Justification: causes serious data loss

    Purging apache (needed to remove logrotate.d file etc) removes /var/log/apache which removes past web logs, and depending on the configuration may remove apache 2 logs as well.
