updating Lighttpd port in OpenBSD 4.5 to 1.4.22

bochmann Friday 10 of April, 2009
The ports tree of the upcoming OpenBSD 4.5 release contains Lighttpd (cache) 1.4.21, which unfortunately has a couple of bugs (cache).

Fortunately the OpenBSD port just patches the example config file, so updating it to 1.4.22 is quite easy:

  • Download lighttpd-1.4.22.tar.gz to /usr/ports/distfiles
  • go to /usr/ports/www/lighttpd
  • in Makefile, change DISTNAME to lighttpd-1.4.22
  • run "make makesum" to update distinfo
  • build and install
