Actually, it&#x27;s still a pain for package maintainers. Take a look at mod_wsgi for apache as an example, it&#x27;s maintained as a completely separate package (the rpmspec and dist-git trees are totally independent from apache) - when the httpd package gets upgraded mod_wsgi doesn&#x27;t have to be rebuilt at all. This is important, in fact, because rebuilding a package means updating the spec file, bumping the release, and submitting a new build to koji - not something you want to do for loadable modules every time httpd is updated.<p>This is going to create headaches for anyone wanting to package nginx, either they will have to compile all the modules when building nginx (creating many sub-packages) or there will have to be coordination between package maintainers to do a mass rebuild of all loadable modules every time the nginx package gets bumped. Neither situation is desirable, and I hope they release a stable ABI because until then nobody is going to waste time packaging loadable modules.
