How to enable debugging in the nginx?

I've added nginx offical repo as per http://wiki.nginx.org/Install . Installed nginx-debug package (for CentOS 6.5 x86_64), which clearly says: 

Description : Not stripped version of nginx built with the debugging log
        : support.

But still, --with-debug flag is missing from nginx -V output and of course no debug logs.

Could not find any info on how would I enable debugging from RPMs, all info is based on compile time configuration.

Thanks.

Ok. repoquery -l nginx-debug showed that it installed only 1 file /usr/sbin/nginx-debug. Now I could simply edit /etc/sysconfig/nginx file, and change nginx executable from /usr/sbin/nginx to /usr/sbin/nginx-debug. And it works. I see my debug logs.
