Bug Description

Hello, I noticed that the /updates/manualupdate.html was just returning a dump of the file contents on my 2.8.0 system running Debian Jessie.

I think that it is because Debian Jessie's apache 2.4 doesn't include mod cgi enabled like wheeze does. Running 'a2enmod cgi' and restarting apache fixed the issue with manualupdate.html.

So perhaps cgi should be added to the jessie dependency file - DEB_APACHE_MODS list.

I'll have a working branch when I get a chance.
Thanks
Josh

Tested with EG 2.8.1 and Debian Jessie.

Before this change after a new install the /updates/manualupdate.html page would just spit back the scripts code.

After this change the page returns the correct information.

Makes sense to me. Pushed to master and backported to rel_2_8 and rel_2_7 for completeness. Thanks Josh!
