Ebuild patch

I found that when using fancyindex in Nginx it would display my index but it would take exactly 60 seconds to load the site in question. It appears that this is due to its returning an HTTP 0 code. I found others who have had this issue online and I found a work-around. I have attached my ebuild patch for my work-around. You can find the link to where I got this idea here: http://serverfault.com/questions/507375/nginx-not-finishing-fancyindex

To reproduce this error, you can create a server configuration such as this:

server {
	server_name localhost;

	listen 80;

	root /var/www/localhost;

	fancyindex on;
	fancyindex_exact_size off;
}


Lastly, here is all of the relevant information from my system:

Has this been reported upstream? If not, please do. Even if we were to temporarily carry such a patch, I would much rather prefer an upstream commit.

[Comment 2 Johan Bergström 2013-09-29 12:54:49 UTC]

Just a FYI - this was fixed with ngx_fancyindex 0.3.2. Will close bug when nginx 1.4.2 lands in unstable arches.

nginx-1.4.2-r1 just got unmasked.
