Package: nginx-extras
Version: 1.13.12-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I'm currently using nginx-extras to have a number of modules built in.
However, since the rise of dynamic modules, it seems that some modules
are installed as a dependency, which is not completely true. As an
example, libnginx-mod-http-image-filter is listed, by not really required.

However this same module requires some dependencies that I would like to
suppress, like libtiff5, but it's blocked by the dependency model.

Would you like to consider using "Recommends:" for dynamic modules? They
will be installed by the default settings anyway, and could be removed
afterwards without hard breaking the installation.

Have a nice day,

Adrien
