[pkg-lighttpd] Bug#753276: lighttpd: FTBFS when using cowbuilder

[Michael Tautschnig]

Package: lighttpd
Version: 1.4.35-2
Severity: wishlist
Usertags: goto-cc

During a rebuild of all Debian packages in a clean sid chroot (using cowbuilder
and pbuilder) the build failed with the following error.

[...]
# status failed: expected '200', got '500'

#   Failed test '404 handler => dynamic(200)'
#   at ./core-404-handler.t line 45.
# 
# status failed: expected '302', got '500'

#   Failed test '404 handler => dynamic(302)'
#   at ./core-404-handler.t line 52.
# 
# status failed: expected '404', got '500'

#   Failed test '404 handler => dynamic(404)'
#   at ./core-404-handler.t line 59.
# 
# status failed: expected '200', got '500'

#   Failed test '404 handler => dynamic(nostatus)'
#   at ./core-404-handler.t line 66.
# 
# status failed: expected '404', got '500'

#   Failed test '404 generated by CGI should stay 404'
#   at ./core-404-handler.t line 73.
# Looks like you failed 5 tests of 8.
./core-404-handler.t .. 

as well as several further test failures. Upon inspection of the error and
breakage logs I find the following in tmp/lighttpd/logs/lighttpd.breakage.log:

env var COWDANCER_ILISTFILE not defined
cowdancer: Fatal, initialize_functions failed
env var COWDANCER_ILISTFILE not defined
env var COWDANCER_ILISTFILE not defined
Can't open perl script "/lighttpd-1.4.35/tests/tmp/lighttpd/servers/www.example.org/pages/send404.pl": Cannot allocate memory


From documentation I gather that there is no way to add environment variables to
mog_cgi? If so, would it be possible to run those tests using mod_fastcgi
instead?

Thanks a lot,
Michael
