Nginx has been removed from Debian Stable

5 points by fuzz_junket 10 years ago · 6 comments · 1 min read


I searched Debian's packages and it looks like they've removed Nginx from the stable distribution (Jessie). It looks to be temporary as it's still in Sid, but I can't find any information on Debian's site. Does this indicate a problem with the previously available packages? From what's on my machine, the previously available version was 1.6.2.

Here are the search results, although they're liable to change when Nginx gets reintroduced: https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=nginx&searchon=names&exact=1&suite=all&section=all

No it hasn’t. It’s still listed at the link you posted, and I see no evidence that it was ever removed at https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/nginx (if it had been removed, there would be a news item there with a reason). If you saw it missing on packages.debian.org, that must have just been a temporary website glitch.

Some people may find this useful in the future: http://nginx.org/en/linux_packages.html

Besides stable and mainline versions of nginx it also provides other packages maintained by nginx such as nginx-nr-agent.
