Description Victor Costan 2016-03-05 04:41:46 UTC
Description of problem:

Google Chrome is in the process of removing its SPDY support [1], and expects site operators to switch to http/2. nginx has official mainline support for http/2 starting at 1.9.5 [2]. Fedora currently includes nginx 1.8 [3, 4]. Please give us a solution for serving content via http/2 using official packages in the Fedora repository.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): N/A

How reproducible: always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up a https server using Fedora and nginx.
2. Check the connection using a Chrome extension [5, 6] or a service [7].

Actual results: nginx 1.8.x can only be configured to serve content using http or spdy

Expected results: the nginx package in the official repositories supports the "http2" configuration option and serves http/2 content

Comment 1 Victor Costan 2016-05-11 00:30:55 UTC
nginx 1.10 was released [1]. Packaging it should solve this bug.

Comment 2 Victor Costan 2016-06-06 01:25:41 UTC
nginx 1.10 appears to be in F24 now. Does this mean NEXTRELEASE?

Thank you!
