=== Debian Squeeze-Backports, Wheezy and after ===

Starting Debian Wheezy (and backported to Debian Squeeze), Nginx packaging was splitted to best fit the needs of users.

Three packages were created, DebPkg:nginx-light, DebPkg:nginx-full, DebPkg:nginx-extras.

Both contains different modules, DebPkg:nginx-light being the lighter and DebPkg:nginx-extras being the heavier. DebPkg:nginx-full is in the middle, being installed with the metapackage DebPkg:nginx (DebPkg:nginx-full is not installed if DebPkg:nginx-light is already installed).
