Prerelease of spawn-fcgi 1.6.0 (rc1-r16)
spawn-fcgi extracted into own project
There are several versions of spawn-fcgi (one in lighttpd 1.4.x, one in
1.5.x and one in cherokee), which makes packaging very hard (e.g.:
debian packages spawn-fcgi from lighty as “spawn-fcgi.lighttpd” - making
usage complicated as your scripts are probably just using
“spawn-fcgi”).
Additionally, keeping the sources and bug fixes synchronized is just too
much work (ok, the one in cherokee isn’t our problem :) ).
Therefore we decided to split spawn-fcgi into a new project which will
start with version 1.6.0 (and will be independent of lighttpd releases
or versions).
We plan to remove spawn-fcgi from lighttpd-1.4.x after the release of 1.4.22.
In case you would like to test a spawn-fcgi version with more features (options for chowning the socket), see here: https://git.stbuehler.de/stbuehler/spawn-fcgi2 (needs glib)
