Hi,

I contacted current maintainer of lighttpd, Paul Wisehart, and he said 
he will no longer maintain the lighttpd.SlackBuild.

I'm no expert in the area, but I would like to point a few things for 
the new maintainer:

1. In 
https://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/14.2/network/lighttpd/README.SLACKWARE 
the location of php.ini should no longer be /etc/httpd, but /etc.

2. I'm not sure about that, but since the SlackBuild allows for changing 
user/group, the following line in 
https://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/14.2/network/lighttpd/conf/lighttpd.logrotate:

create 0644 lighttpd lighttpd

should be changed to:

create 0644 @USER@ @GROUP@

or simply:

create

3. Probably it would be a good idea to provide more recent configuration 
file example.


On a side note, (lighttpd2) 
https://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/14.2/network/lighttpd2/README.SLACKWARE, 
also contains /etc/httpd/php.ini, which should be changed to 
/etc/php.ini and possibly hardcoded user name in the logrotate conf file.
