Description

**WordPress 4.5.2** is now available. This is a security release for all previous versions and we strongly encourage you to update your sites immediately.

**Packaging changes**

 - provide nginx configuration

 - drop mandatory dependency on httpd (only suggested) and mod_php (php-fpm works)
