About Drupal PLD packaging.

I've attempted to make drupal packages with security in mind that code and html
documents are separated.

Therefore the files needed for web access are in separate htdocs/ directory and
as drupal is not designed itself with such layout in mind, there are symlinks
pointing to web root in modules dir. Could have accomplished this with
patching, but that would need too much research how the drupal works.

With this packaging logic You can easily setup your Drupal instance with
non-Apache web server (like lighttpd) just pointing the document root to
/usr/share/drupal/htdocs.

Only exception for now is tinymce module which creates alias to shared tinymce
package. but that single alias is easy to add at least in lighttpd.
