This was just as simple in the antiquated SUSE 8.1

,----[ Relevant bit ]
| # You may use a wizard to set up a Web server, typically on port 8001 and
| the standard location which is ~/public_html (your home directory's
| public domain). The permissions on ~/public_html must accept it as
| public, e.g. by typing chmod 755 ~/public_html at the command-line.
|
| # Under KDE, if you have not got public_html set up already, you might
| wish to right-click (right-handed mouse) on one of the panels (docks),
| then follow Add » Applet » Public File Server. From there onwards, aw
| izard will guide you through the short and painless process.

Mo need for any additional software _at all_.
Best wishes,
