Lighttpd2

Thanks for your reply, but that is not instructions how to install Lighttpd2 from source.

This is the documentation that needs to be updated:
https://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/lighttpd2/wiki/Installation

(I removed the "lighttpd (1.4) install" tutorial; that has no place in an issue tracker, and was bad in many other ways)

lighttpd2 is currently mostly for myself; I don't intend to release it, nor to support it properly.

You're still welcome to play with it (and I do use it on my own servers, i.e. "production"), but it helps if your a software developer yourself, and understand how HTTP request handling in a webserver works.

Anyway: I recently removed all build systems apart from https://mesonbuild.com/ (which shouldn't be a problem, because glib uses it too, and we need glib anyway). The debian package for it is named meson.

The debian source package at https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:stbuehler:lighttpd2-nightlies/lighttpd2 might give more insight what build options could be useful, and what dependencies are needed (I use the debian packages built there on my servers).

Feel free to update the wiki if you want.

I've created this docker image and been using it in production for some time:
https://github.com/Kristianstad/lighttpd2/pkgs/container/lighttpd2

It's really tiny and has been working flawlessly, but I guess I'll switch to Nginx now.
