Hi Jesse,

A short reply as I'm in flight...multiple nginx packages with different options 
could be facilitated via alternatives. This would require some coordination but 
is possible.

Thanks

Hi Andy (and maintainers)


I'm a newbee maintainer so apologies in advance for the dumb questions.


I see you maintain nginx - yay. I use nginx with passenger for semi-high 
availability ruby on rails hosting (doing both front end load balancing / 
failover and the nginx-passenger-ruby instances at the app tier).


What are your thoughts about adding the passenger module to the nginx package? 
My first thought is that this creates too many dependencies, ie ruby, but 
perhaps it can be only an optional runtime dependency? I'm not sure what nginx 
would do if it's compiled with passenger support and you remove ruby (and the 
passenger ruby gem).


So, failing that, would it make sense to have a separate package named 
nginx+passenger or something? Or is there no room for such things with the 
opencsw naming convention?


Or do you think this falls in to the basked of 'sorry opencsw can't help you'?


Cheers

Jesse
