Nope, I am not changing this, unless you give me a damn good reason. it is just a distribution implementation detail and does not affect the functionality.
Nathan has given a very good reason. The upstream project documentation and all the other vendors are using a different naming schema.
"all the other vendors"?
RedHat/CentOS/Fedora: httpd Debian: apache2 guess all Debian derivatives: apache2
So I don't see which all other vendors are using a different naming schema.
Actually I don't care that much but this argument is weak imho.
Good point. Very good point. IMHO "httpd" is just wrong, as there are many of that kind of service. So, stay with "apache2" as package name for now (OSS 13.2 and SLE 12). The naming of the binaries and scripts OTOH, should be thought about. Either put them "back" to upstream defaults, (and use upstream docs), or invest the work to make sure the documentation (esp. man-pages) match the reality. Ah, the choice of poison!
