Make PoWA installation easier for Debian users ;)

Hi, thanks a lot for this patches.

I see that by default you use morbo as web server (debian/powa.default). I wonder if it wouldn't be better to use hypnotoad, which is also available by default with mojolicious and is more suited for production environnement. It would only require adding some extra lines in the powa.conf-dist file.

Hi Julien, Am not a Perl developer and didn't know that hypnotoad is more reliable and more suited for prod env. I'll try to work on this as soon as possible :) Thanks

I'll add some specific configuration for hypnotoad soon, so you don't have to worry about this :)

Hi,

We've been discussing about this with rjuju, and I think maybe including this patch here, upstream, may not be the best place. It seems to us that most of the projects revolving around PostgreSQL don't have distribution-specific files provided in the source. For instance, PoWA is already provided for RPM-based distros, but yum.postgresql.org are doing their things separately from us. They maintain a powa patch separately to do their packaging.

I think the best place for this patch, to be consistent, would be with the guys doing apt.postgresql.org, don't you think ?

Hi Marco, I agree with you, but I wonder if you can add as well this feature in a specific branch (many developers did that and I think I'll be interesting). @rjuju thx for your help. I tested with some conf snippets and it worked well with hypnotoad.

Hi Julien, It worked and now it seems more convenient to specify the config file to the application. Thank you.

Hi abessifi !

Thanks for your work . However I'm closing this Pull Request because we're currently making huge transformations on the project that will have a direct impact on the packaging
