Package: lighttpd
Version: 1.4.31-4+deb7u3
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

Apologies if I'm simply confused or not understanding
how things are done with lighttpd and there really is nothing to correct.

The start page clearly states that after running

#lighty-enable-mod cgi

CGI scripts are looked for in directory

/usr/lib/cgi-bin/

but after looking at error reports after activating debug,
and from what actually works, they are looked for in directory

/var/www/cgi-bin/

This wasted some hours of my time, and maybe other peoples.

It seems like the default start page should be corrected
(updated?).
