Hi Sergey,

I was able to install nginx-module-image-filter with apt, but
http-xslt-filter, mail, stream all fail with the same message Depends:
nginx-common (= 1.18.0-0ubuntu1.4).

I looked at the 2 links you gave and both talk about building nginx
from source to get those modules included. Is that now required? With
1.18 I simply did:

sudo apt install lua5.3
sudo apt install libluajit-5.1-2
sudo apt install lua-sql-mysql
sudo apt install libnginx-mod-http-lua

Thanks!
Larry
