Package: lighttpd
Version: 1.4.19-4
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hi,
lighttpd is the perfect choice for a test webserver for CGI programs.
But one does not need it running all the time, specially on laptops. I
wanted a way to have lighttpd installed, but disabled, so I not waste
RAM and CPU during most of the time when I don't need it. When I need
it, I can manually start it with a custom configuration file, and with
my regular user account.
Please consider applying the attached patch. It makes possible to
disable lighttpd by creating /etc/default/lighttpd with a line like
this:
DISABLE_LIGHTTPD=Y
The patch does not introduce any bashisms in the initscript, and seems
to work well on my system.
Thanks,

+Disabling lighttpd
+==================
+
+By default, when installed lighttpd is enabled in Debian systems. This means
+that it will probably conflict with other running webservers, unless you
+manually configure them to use different ports.
+
+You may want to disable lighttpd by default, maybe because you want to run it
+manually as a test webserver for CGI programs. To do that, you have to create
+the file /etc/default/lighttpd with the following line:
+
+DISABLE_LIGHTTPD=Y

The problem is that whenever lighttpd is upgraded the symlinks are added
again, but I went RTFM update-rc.d and I give up solving my problem the
wrong way.
