Hi, There is no nginx package for 6.06, afaik (at least not in main, universe, or multiverse). I have just set up a fresh 6.06 system, and I downloaded the 0.5.30 (latest) nginx source, and built with the standard './configure && make' - then 'sudo make install'. No problems, and works fine for me. You will need 'sudo aptitude install build-essential' first, though, to get gcc and related build utilities.
