On my server I want to run nginx and brotli. According to https://github.com/google/ngx_brotli I am supposed to compile nginx with the brotli module. I could do that but then I have a problem when there's an update for nginx, it won't come with the official packages for debian.



Now I have added the nginx package to sources.list according to http://nginx.org/en/linux_packages.html and installed the latest nginx through it however this would give me the precompiled version without brotli module.



So can I somehow install the sources files where they get pulled with an update so that I can run the compilation again for updating? Or is wgetting the sources.gz and unpacking&compiling really the only way?



I'd love to run brotli with a dynamically linked module like with apache mod_brotli but there is no way to do that in the official nginx sources.
