The following commands will add the Cherokee Web Server PPA to Ubuntu (version 9.10 and higher). The first command adds the extremely handy add-apt-repository program to your system. The second adds the Cherokee Personal Package Archive.
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cherokee-webserver/ppa
At the moment, Cherokee is at version 1.0.9.
If you don't already have Cherokee installed and you want to install it I find the following combination of packages most useful:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cherokee cherokee-doc libcherokee-mod-libssl libcherokee-mod-streaming libcherokee-mod-rrd libcherokee-mod-admin spawn-fcgi
That's it. If you want more simple posts on building lean servers, cloud computing, software development and more, subscribe to my RSS feed and/or follow me on Twitter. Cheers!
