I did so with the new ppa and without it. With that I was - comparing the results/bheavior of old/new version. - running httperf against it checking that there is no degradation and no errors in the log when stressing it a bit. - installing the nginx extra packages and reran the above - eventually upgrading the one without the ppa and checked that everything works still. Comments/Changes what I realized being a simulated normal user of nginx due to the upgrade: I realized the default config for php fpm changed in the conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/default from /var/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock to /run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock But both exist and work, so it might be fine. In general the default config got a lot of noisy updates (e.g. help URLs changed, order of entries changed, comments changed), but not a lot functional ones. TL;DR - I did not hit an issue on the upgrade due to this at least - so that should be ok. The systemd service now lists a man page - well that is a good change? The new packaging (as you announced) has more libnginx-mod-* packages for the extra features now. I did not explicitly use any of the extra features yet, but they install correctly. There is a warning about dependency issues is posted, but that is on the nginx-core that is about to be removed. Also this warning is the same prior to the update - juts with more packages now so it seems "more conflicts" at first sight. Overall all went fine - maybe not the best test possible, but I hope that gives you some confidence! -- Christian Ehrhardt Software Engineer, Ubuntu Server Canonical Ltd
