Hello.
Is it planned to add a package with the module
https://github.com/leev/ngx_http_geoip2_module to the official nginx
repository (as it is now for the GeoIP v1 module)?
So that the user can safely update nginx through the linux package manager
(apt/yum) without rebuilding the third-party module each time from the
sources?
Or are there any difficulties with this (internal competition with
nginx-plus, inappropriate license ngx_http_geoip2_module, etc)?
Thank you for the information.
Sincerely.
