I'm running them locally on my own sbuild systems. The issue appears to be in the Ubuntu specific changes that we applied in Trusty (the addition of the `nginx-core` flavor for Main as part of the MIR), so I have to debug those. That's why the merge is not available anywhere yet. There'll be a separate call for testing of a potential merge candidate sent to the list once I have a non-failing build.
The other issue with the merge is that I have to basically 'redo' the `nginx-core` changes. The existing delta and the new dynamic-modules builds don't merge cleanly with each other, so I'd have to redo the nginx-core variation and the Ubuntu delta by hand to account for these changes. Which isn't hard, just time consuming. > >> I am not 100% sure whether we should be updating Xenial to 1.10.2. >> Apart from the fact it is more than just a 'bug fix' release, I'm not so >> sure whether we need all of these bug fixes in Xenial.
