Dear Maintainer,

dwww seems to really only support automatic configuration for Apache.

Installing dwww alone after a non-Apache web server has been installed
-- I tried mini-httpd and nginx-light: both provide httpd-cgi --
will not work without further manual HTTP server configuration.

IMHO dwww should at least have:
Recommends: apache2
...instead of:
Recommends: apache2 | httpd
...so that users get a working dwww at least by default.
