Summary
lighttpd is a secure, fast, compliant and very flexible web-server which has been optimized for high-performance environments. It has a very low memory footprint compared to other webservers and takes care of cpu-load. Its advanced feature-set (FastCGI, CGI, Auth, Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting and many more) make lighttpd the perfect webserver-software for every server that is suffering load problems.

USE flags
General
- bzip2
- Use the bzlib compression library
- dbi
- Enable dev-db/libdbi (database-independent abstraction layer) support
- doc
- Add extra documentation (API, Javadoc, etc). It is recommended to enable per package instead of globally
- fam
- Enable FAM (File Alteration Monitor) support
- gdbm
- Add support for sys-libs/gdbm (GNU database libraries)
- geoip
- Add geoip support for country and city lookup based on IPs
- ipv6
- Add support for IP version 6
- kerberos
- Add kerberos support
- ldap
- Add LDAP support (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)
- libev
- Enable fdevent handler
- libressl
- Use dev-libs/libressl instead of dev-libs/openssl when applicable (see also the ssl useflag)
- lua

- memcached
- Add support for memcached
- minimal
- Install a very minimal build (disables, for example, plugins, fonts, most drivers, non-critical features)

*/*: [QA] Fix trivial cases of MissingTestRestrict
The result was achieved via the following pipeline: pkgcheck scan -c RestrictTestCheck -R FormatReporter \ --format '{category}/{package}/{package}-{version}.ebuild' | xargs -n32 grep -L RESTRICT | xargs -n32 sed -i -e '/^IUSE=.*test/aRESTRICT="!test? ( test )"' The resulting metadata was compared before and after the change. Few Go ebuilds had to be fixed manually due to implicit RESTRICT=strip added by the eclass. Two ebuilds have to be fixed because of multiline IUSE. Suggested-by: Robin H.

With 1.4.40 and 1.4.41 having known bugs and the extant buggy stable versions, I'm adding a live ebuild to give users a practical solution to their bugs while we wait for a good version to settle on. lighttpd-1.4.42 is due in October.

proj/gentoo: Initial commit
This commit represents a new era for Gentoo: Storing the gentoo-x86 tree in Git, as converted from CVS. This commit is the start of the NEW history. Any historical data is intended to be grafted onto this point. Creation process: 1. Take final CVS checkout snapshot 2. Remove ALL ChangeLog* files 3. Transform all Manifests to thin 4. Remove empty Manifests 5. Convert all stale $Header$/$Id$ CVS keywords to non-expanded Git $Id$ 5.1. Do not touch files with -kb/-ko keyword flags. Signed-off-by: Robin H.
