I would like to use the gunzip module to serve cached, gzipped responses to clients that do not support gzip. I am running an Ubuntu 14.04 server. According to this post [1] the nginx-extras package includes support for gunzip, but when I add the 'gunzip on;' directive to my config I get an error that the directive is unknown.
Is the the gunzip module is available from another nginx deb package on Debian/Ubuntu? My stack needs to work with the standard builds of nginx that are included with Debian, so I can't build from source. If not, what is the best alternative to deal with Vary: Accept-Encoding in nginx? My back-end only uses two variations: either "Content-Encoding: gzip" or no Content-Encoding at all. Is there a 'smart' value I can add to my proxy_cache_key so that it will normalize all of the possible variations of 'Accept-Encoding' containing 'gzip' ?
