Well, you're the first to complain at least :) > For the record, most other packages for server apps have their > Debian-specific settings elsewhere - either in separate config files or > in /etc/default/* so the idea isn't anything unusual. Please note, /etc/default is not for Debian specific configuration settings, but for environment variables and startup configuration the init script parses to start a given daemon in a sensible way. You will not find any configuration file in it. > But, if you really dislike the idea that much, I will treat lighttpd as > a special case and duplicate all the Debian paths and options in my > config repository :-( I discussed your bug with some other people earlier today, and they all agreed that the bug is more likely a limitation in Puppet than in Lighttpd (some claimed you could do, what you want in Puppet - I don't know). There was a clear tendency towards "wontfix". Anyway, what would you think about a /etc/lighttpd.conf.local setting we would reference in the default configuration where you could add additional core settings. Please note, it would not quite solve your problem as you can't override certain settings and/or undo some conditionals like we do for IPv6, but at least you could add site local configuration settings as you like. I guess, we would fill anything in a .local file though, so you could safely put anything in there without having problems with merge conflicts on update. - -- with kind regards, Arno Töll IRC: daemonkeeper on Freenode/OFTC GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJOi5oXAAoJEMcrUe6dgPNtS54QAM7r/ykqm+eQxN0jEUd2BfYl OX4GYeRSdEj9oDkjUpMmJcJr77vkv2LNXKL7kXlP9ejgcMSf7ma9G1pe4N7Ar/Fe LtPviRNAxmue1oBe1z1Sp2dTRVkhsGph/p/NaAyVhuOM+JqCiFUQ5cu4TNEa7OTr QrEe+Z14zeVbkfT0PDWsIQOgiTEyOQ8HuqxGPE/G8QGi71USpxbJ6M8d21TGvUY8 DAa+VWNYvIjgeQICd5OS+ygdmOw1e+8qdjBimResQgbrbj5DhATxVLDIn76A6PQo MLnRk7CSb5ebl6wE87m07M3gZ0u2yWkHnPB8/5EbArIiwsDvGUYB3Ufw4hXnZdBX qB6xg/MIaKgm/4c8t4/Pzv7vncG7M9Qe7Sngt1vZ6sj35fPWYqu9wCJeWRTXD6ZB I9d+7r1rkKajxa/diQyHfjqaecp8nJnmQ5oXyT3Orc56sjrAXFKniiy/ezIcwolL UViBCGMA1ZIKDBPyvFOxk3+kcTvtdKAnM2llPrjpcZPQmtaKfKiN0gHEfz2ssAoy HBbGzENf/fwH3+j+2d9uzUR3rduKACWZeqYrtu+ARxymYio/dI1Z632j2Ny85vGN iGGxEY6tvgRl7E1nHVT2KSV9ZqB23nJUFEZjUOFJGjdnslcSHNgPQ8DmJCympKSa p2fLIEoEt39BGpK60Hn+ =iErU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
