Question
Does an NGINX update also update the installed plugins ?
See title … I found this post : https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/how-to-update-nginx-and-should-i-update-it
It says that one can update NGINX as follows :
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nginx
However, let’s say you a 1 or more plugins installed. Does the update process check for updates of the plugins as well ? Or do I have to manually update the plugins I am using also ?
I ask this because I read a comment about how updating NGINX is a nightmare here : https://anturis.com/blog/nginx-vs-apache/
