Comment 22 for bug 1194074

Thank you for writing back Thomas. It seems I did not get that protection since I am on Ubuntu 14.04.
I am pleased to hear, however, that the installer behavior has improved. Thank you.

I was on nginx version 1.4.6 and upgraded to 1.12.2 to get support for dynamically loaded modules.
I am on Ubuntu 14.04.1. I upgraded using this sequence:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libnginx-mod-http-fancyindex
