Difference between dotdeb, nginx.org/packages and wheezy-backports

Closed this issue · 1 comments

At the moment there are 3 repositories for getting nginx stable (1.6.0) for Debian Wheezy.

Can you clarify what is the difference between these and why should a user choose one over the others?

I can't say about other packages from nginx.org (take a look at their debian/rules file), but Dotdeb packages are almost the same as these from wheezy-backports, with some extras 3rd-party modules, spread amongst different flavors.
