Hi,

I am upgrading libressl to 2.5. I got a build error in nginx while
doing rebuild. I noticed that there are a new stable nginx and thought
it would be a good idea to upgrade to this.

There seems to a bunch of modules pulled in. This was introduced with
this commit:

commit e07695e1581744e63bd459f7fa827f51c4d8dbf7

    main/nginx: add all modules from testing/nginx-naxsi

    - added modules: naxsi, cache_purge, upstream-fair, sysguard

    - remade dynamic modules definition
    - upgrade modules
        nchan to 1.1.2
        rtmp to 1.1.11
        naxsi to 0.55.3
    - add checkconfig to init script
    - cleaned and improved APKBUILD


The upgrade of nginx does not build due to echo-nginx-module no longer
builds:

/home/ncopa/aports/main/nginx/src/echo-nginx-module-0.60/src/ngx_http_echo_request_info.c: In function 'ngx_http_echo_client_request_headers_variable':
/home/ncopa/aports/main/nginx/src/echo-nginx-module-0.60/src/ngx_http_echo_request_info.c:219:15: error: incompatible types when assigning to type 'ngx_buf_t * {aka struct ngx_buf_s *}' from type 'ngx_chain_t {aka struct ngx_chain_s}'
             b = hc->busy[i];
               ^
/home/ncopa/aports/main/nginx/src/echo-nginx-module-0.60/src/ngx_http_echo_request_info.c:284:15: error: incompatible types when assigning to type 'ngx_buf_t * {aka struct ngx_buf_s *}' from type 'ngx_chain_t {aka struct ngx_chain_s}'
             b = hc->busy[i];
               ^

It seems that there this patch is needed:
https://github.com/defanator/echo-nginx-module/commit/d16babcc09050966f5055df41572429bd84d811a

However, I am not sure what the plan was on how to apply patches for
the 3rd party module with the "improved APKBUILD"?

I also found it inconvenient go over all the modules and look for new versions. I cannot just paste the URL
https://github.com/openresty/$_http_echo_name into the browser to find
new version.

So basically, I'm not really willing to maintain this. Anyone else who
wants take responsability for this? I don't think Cameron Banta (the
listed maintainer) will do it.

I am disabling it for now since its blocking me from upgrade to
libressl 2.5.

If nobody wants to take responsability for this, then I'll do it, but
then I'll remove all the modules, because I'm not gonna maintain it
like that.
