Nginx rpm and configure arguments

Server NGINX
1

I began thinking about using Puppet to automate deployment and that led
me
to thinking about using rpms to make keeping up with new releases
easier.

Since I’ve always compiled nginx from source, I was curious how one
specifies configure arguments like --with-http_ssl_module and
–with-http_gzip_static_module when using rpms.

Color me curious…

You could download srpm
(http://nginx.org/packages/rhel/6/SRPMS/nginx-1.2.8-1.el6.ngx.src.rpm),
install it, and look at nginx.spec as example.
