Description
The CRS team believes that strange CRS problems are reported when users use NGINX Ondrej PPA.
Reports:
- SO link to follow FIXME
What we think the problem is: FIXME
We would like to solve this problem (if any) or have it documented so users understand how to follow.
Statements from chat so that we don't lose them:
- We believe that the Ondrej PPA is responsible for the very strange errors we've seen reported over the past 2 years. E.g. "200 is not a number" and very odd things like that. (bearbeitet) (LINK?)
We've had, I think, 4 separate reports. - Yes, I think one remembers issues with that PPA and some bad dependencies. (LINK)
- yeah, there were some PCRE issue (LINK)
- Ondrey likes to use his own PCRE package (because of the PHP) (clarified the why below)
