I'm trying to install owncloud with lighttpd on stable release
$ aptitude show owncloud
Package: owncloud
New: yes
State: not installed
Version: 7.0.4+dfsg-4~deb8u1
...
Depends: apache2 | httpd, fonts-font-awesome, fonts-liberation,
...
It says the package is depends on apache2 or httpd. So as I think it should
allow me to install it without installing apache2 package if some installed
package provides httpd (such as lighttpd or nginx).
But
$ sudo aptitude install owncloud

fonts-font-awesome{a} fonts-liberation{a} fonts-linuxlibertine{a}
...
it wants to install apache web-server
I checked it on current testing with installed lighttpd - it works as expected,
no apache2 packages
On current debian testing:
$ aptitude show owncloud
Package: owncloud
New: yes
State: not installed

fonts-linuxlibertine, fonts-lohit-deva, fonts-sil-gentium-basic,
