No argument here. I guess I was misled by the section description in aptitude: Packages in the 'web' section include Web browsers, Web servers and proxies, software to write CGI scripts or Web-based programs, pre-written Web-based programs, and other software related to the World Wide Web. This, and 'static site generator' made me think section 'web' would be appropriate. > I notice that ikiwiki is in the web section, however I believe that > is a mistake.
