Hi Edgar,

 just to be explicit: the idea is to have lighttpd-nossl in the
official repo so I can get away with distributing a single
platform-independent opkg. So I was hoping that the current
maintainer could simply add a -nossl build instead of me having
to reproduce the complete build effort.

What I could do, though, is provide for a package/lighttpd-nossl/
Makefile and company and someone else adds it to the official
build system, but chances are that testing my changes, and generally
making sure I didn't screw up might surpass the effort that
a knowledgable maintainer requires for a copy/modify operation
on the current package repo.

I might be wrong there, and am grateful for any advice on
how to proceed.

Cheers,
Christiane
