Adding the Cherokee Web Server PPA to Ubuntu

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.

```bash
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:


    ```bash
    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
