So... installing Directadmin for the first time, just getting started with all of this. I see where it's compiling almost everything that it uses - I suppose my question is, has there been any thought of going towards a more RPM based system? That would greatly reduce the installation time, and presumably make upgrading much easier.
I suppose this is hindered a bit by the fact that Directadmin supports Debian and FreeBSD which don't operate RPMs. And I'm not sure if that's something you really want to fluff the feathers on. But... I'm guessing your going to see a large influx of customers coming from cPanel - which operates on RHEL/CentOS/CloudLinux which is all RPM based.
I suppose ultimately my question is... are there any plans or thoughts of moving to a RHEL/CentOS/CloudLinux only setup so that all of this installation and upgrading can be streamlined? Perhaps using the Remi repository for PHP? There's also Apache 2.4.39 in the CodeIT repository.
Just my opinion... I would kind of think this would be better moving forward. But I suppose if you are really tied to providing Debian and FreeBSD support, then this would not be an option.
