That is also needed by dhelp (when you called it like > "dhelp search-term search-term2"). ... fixing lighttpd configuration to enable cgi-bin access (by linking /etc/lighttpd/conf-available/10-cgi.conf to /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled) did. Not enabling this in lighttpd by default could be a violation of policy 11.5, and at least apache2 seems to have cgi-bins enabled by default. On the other hand there is good reason for having a more restricted default config in a web server. Anyway, reassigning this to lighttpd.
