Err... I don't read [EMAIL PROTECTED] as often as -apps, so I noticed this message only when I actually already managed to create a lighttpd cygport by myself...

I see you didn't override src_install() as I did... that's because you have a more recent cygport that does more/different things or simply that you install also the .la files? (which I don't think are much useful, as those are really plugins for ligthy, not shared libraries anyone else might want to link to) BTW: can you explain the cygwinports things a bit to me? the main question is: what's the "motive" behind it? to be an incubation tank for new possible packages people may choose to adopt? to share the work of patching "hard to port" software? to simply be an alternative source-only form of cygwin distribution (alike to freebsd ports and/or gentoo portage, except that freebsd ports are in fact used to create official packages and cygwin ports seems not to be, except maybe your packages?)
