8 Not exactly. The webapp stuff gets installed to /usr/share/webapps/${PN}/${PVR},
9 which is about the equivalent of /usr/src/linux because you will never point
10 your webserver to that directory. If you do, you're just dumb and deserve a
11 security flaw. webapp-config installs the packages to /var/www (equivalent of
12 /boot), where the webserver should make it available. So the SLOT="${PVR}" is
13 not an issue in this case.
