Package: passenger
Version: 6.0.17+ds-1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

I tried to install Redmine (some management software written in Ruby)
with nginx and Passenger on Debian Bookworm.

These are installation instructions for Redmine:

https://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineInstall

And, more importantly, specific instructions for nginx on a former
version of Debian:

https://www.danielgorbe.com/en/blog/redmine-on-debian/

The latter relies on a libnginx-mod-http-passenger package, which used
to be provided for debian by the Phusion Passenger team:

https://www.phusionpassenger.com/docs/advanced_guides/install_and_upgrade/nginx/install/oss/buster.html

Alas, their repository no longer provides packages for current versions
of Debian (particularly Bookworm), although they do have packages for
Ubuntu.

Now, it turns out that Debian official repositories provide its
counterpart for Apache: libapache2-mod-passenger. How about also
providing nginx integration?
