My hope is that eventually all platforms would do it this way, but someone has
to be first! Perhaps, as Arno suggested previously, upstream would be willing
to provide a split config like this so that other distros could follow the lead?
Interesting idea about extracting the config options. I'd be a little worried
though about extracting the options, appending my own, then writing it back to
lighttpd.conf. If anything ever went wrong it would be very easy to severely
break the config file on subsequent runs. There's no /etc/default/lighttpd
either that you could change to point lighttpd at a different config file
either, to preserve the original.
Cheers,
Adam.
