#4 Re: Caveats for upgrading a webserver to Ubuntu feisty Posted by lee (193.82.xx.xx) on Thu 26 Apr 2007 at 14:29 Ah, that's a shame. I looks like maintaining the mod-security licence conflict is a deliberate business decision by the developers (and retailers of an "appliance" using it) to prevent it from being distributed in binary form by Debian, Ubuntu, etc. I guess it won't be reappearing unless someone does an -installer package in the same way that djb-developed tools need to be distributed. Given I only use it for filtering out POST-based comment spam, etc, I'm considering dropping it in order to allow for easy upgrades and maintainence.
