How to obtain a minitoc with classicthesis?

Question

Suppose you want to write a report with a local TOC at the beginning of each chapter. This can be obtained with the minitoc package. MWE:
documentclass[a4paper]{report}
usepackage{minitoc}
%input{classicthesis-config}

begin{document}
dominitoc
tableofcontents

chapter{Apple}
minitoc
section{Alabama}
section{Arizona}
subsection{Afghanistan}
subsection{Austria}

chapter{Banana}

chapter{Cherry}

end{document}

The minitoc is visible here:

If one now wants to use the classicthesis template, the minitoc is no longer included in the produced PDF.
MWE: uncomment input{classicthesis-config}.
This seems to be a known issue. I was wondering if there is any update to this. Or is there a workaround to obtain a minitoc?

You can replace minitoc with the package etoc with advantages (The first is that it is compatible with classicthesis, the second is that is well maintained).
The only changes are to replace minitoc with localtableofcontents and add the required  style (the last  separation rule).
I added  dummy text to get  meaningful tables of contents.

This is the code.
documentclass[a4paper]{report}

usepackage{classicthesis}

usepackage{etoc} % added <<<<<<<<<<<<

usepackage{kantlipsum} % dummy text <<<<

begin{document}

tableofcontents

etocsettocstyle{vskip0.3baselineskip}{noindentrule{linewidth}{0.5pt}vskip0.5baselineskip} % etoc style for local TOC

chapter{Apple}
localtableofcontents %<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

1. kant[1]
section{Alabama}
2. kant[2-4]
section{Arizona}
3. kant[5-7]
subsection{Afghanistan}
4. kant[8-9]
subsection{Austria}
4. kant[10-12]

chapter{Banana}

6. kant[14]
section{Split}
7. kant[15]

chapter{Cherry}
