Hi there!
I've splitted all the third-party modules out of the NginX ebuild.
Since now (>=1.13.6) that modules will be maintained separately.
Also, it should be easier to contribute new ones.
Although, you should keep few things in mind:
1) Since now, you *MUST* load all the modules you use.
As easy option, you can add following command as the first
line in your nginx.conf file:
include modules.d/*.conf;
If you prefer to manually specify only the modules that you're
really use in your configuration, you can use:
load modules/[module_name].so;
directive for that.
2) Some modules (the ones that pathces NginX source to call functions
from inside themselves, and so *requires* static linking, even
despite I made them to be a dynamic module) are currently broken.
(For example, it is 'www-nginx/upstream-check').
Also, some of such modules can miss some functionality (like the
support of NginX's internal round-robin upstream) because of the
same problem.
Actually, they shouldn't patch nginx sources in the first place.
But due to their abandonment (having last commits about 4-10 years
ago), there is nobody to fix that problems.
I'll try to fix that in the future, but I can't promise anything.
Anyway, if you have any problems - feel free to post the issue on
GitHub or write me an email.
