[Pkg-nginx-maintainers] Bug#1008855: Please package newer NGINX Stable version 1.20.0

[Thomas Ward]

Source: nginx
Severity: wishlist

NGINX 1.18 was released back in 2020. This is substantially older than 
Upstream versions, which released 1.20 in April of 2021 (nearly a year ago).

Please upgrade the package version in Debian to 1.20 as soon as 
possible, and then when NGINX 1.22.0 releases this year (within the 
month!) please include that version as well in your updates.

It should never have gotten to the point that this is so neglected - 
historically the package has ALWAYS been kept up to date, hasn't had 
FTBFSes, and has always tracked the yearly Stable branch from upstream.
