I'm curious, why does Tumbleweed have Nginx "stable" (1.8.x) and not "mainline" (1.9.x)?
I maintained nginx for a while. I just followed the choice of the previous maintainers. so let's not discuss the 'why', just take it as 'facts'.
Let's talk about 'how'.
How to update TW's nginx while keep Leap's at stable?
The update itself is easy. but I can't promise that next time when we pick Leap packages. the mainline version in TW contains no incomplete features (at least that's what upstream did for 1.6 and 1.7). anyway in my view, odd number always means experimental. And I don't want users to explicitly install "nginx-mainline", "nginx-stable", "nginx-1.8", "nginx-1.9"...that's not friendly.
A dummy Provides might help. but I have to apply maintainership in server:http to rename packages.
I just did the change.. request id 356966. let's provide just *one* nginx based on upstream recommendations. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
