Lintian tag: apache2-deprecated-auth-config

Type: warning

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The package is using some of the deprecated authentication configuration
directives Order, Satisfy, Allow, Deny, <Limit> or <LimitExcept>

These do not integrate well with the new authorization scheme of Apache
2.4 and, in the case of <Limit> and <LimitExcept> have confusing
semantics. The configuration directives should be replaced with a suitable
combination of <RequireAll>, <RequireAny>, Require all, Require local,
Require ip, and Require method.

Alternatively, the offending lines can be wrapped between <IfModule
!mod_authz_core.c> ... </IfModule> or <IfVersion < 2.3> ... </IfVersion>
directives.
