All,

I have installed apt on my redhat 7.3 machine, but have not yet upgraded any packages.

I don't have DA installed on the machine yet, and I was wondering if it would be safe to upgrade the packages, since DA will be compiled against the new libraries.

Below I have included a list of the packages that need to be upgraded.

Thanks in advance for your response!

Hello,

It should be fine to run up2date and update libraries before installing DirectAdmin. The DirectAdmin binary is a static binary, so all libraries are built in.
