Public bug reported:

If apache, or anything, for that matter, is running on port 80 when
lighttpd is installed, it fails to start.  If you reboot, the init
script is still enabled, but before apache2 in the boot order. (S20 vs
S91, respectively).  This would cause a change in web server preference
by simply installing lighttpd by the next reboot.

I do not think these packages should conflict, as having both binaries
installed would be useful (rails development in my case).  Perhaps a
solution would be to check for the default port for lighttpd, and
configure for a new port if 80 is in use...  maybe even supply an option
to disable lighttpd's boot with an /etc/defaults/lighttpd entry.
