Any suggestions for active Ubuntu nginx-mainline repo?

Server NGINX
1

For a while I was quite happily using the ubuntu nginx ppa repo to get
my
nginx mainline fix
(NGINX Mainline (1.15.x) : “Nginx” team)

However, for some weeks now, it seems to have become inactive and
“stuck” on
1.7.1.

I’ve tried emailing some of the names connected with it - either no
response, or “sorry, not involved any more”.

I’ve even tried changing to utopic branch, ie:

deb Index of /nginx/development/ubuntu utopic main
deb-src Index of /nginx/development/ubuntu utopic main

but still 1.7.1. I’ve had a really good google around, but no luck. To
be
honest, I’d love a mainline build of nginx-extras that includes google
pagespeed module. Yes, I know I could go down the road of compiling it
all
myself, but I’ve always ended up with a bit of a mess!

Any pointers to nginx-extra Ubuntu repos bring the the 1.7.4 goodness
would
be appreciated!

I would love to, but I tried before and I couldn’t install nginx-extras,
and
I still don’t see nginx-extras in the repo. Am I missing something?
I rely heavily on several of the modules compiled into extras, so this
is
crucial for me. Which is why I switched to the Ubuntu repo, but now they
have stopped building :frowning:

The nginx-extras package is only available in the nginx ppa. The
official nginx package only provides a vanilla nginx install (no third
party modules).

Ah, OK. Thank you. Bad news then. If the nginx ppa has stopped updating,
then I guess the only option is for me to get familiar with custom
builds.
Wish me luck! :slight_smile:
