Has anybody managed to install DirectAdmin on AlmaLinux 10? I keep running into this error: Unable to find a match: msmtp.

I do not have this error on AlmaLinux 9. Any ideas?
 
Code: 
sudo dnf install epel-release
sudo dnf install msmtp msmtp-mta

Normally Directadmin installation should do all this if it's not present.
Since Almalinux 10 is supported I suggest sending in a ticket for this.
 
It seems there's an issue with how rocky and alma sets up their releasever variable in dnf.

Alma retrieves metadata from https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-z-10&arch=aarch64, while CentOS stream gets data from https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-10&arch=aarch64

The additional -z results from ${releasever_minor:+-z} substitution due to almalinux setting releasever_minor to 0 instead of leaving empty like centos stream.

It should be possible to install msmtp using dnf --releasever-minor="" install msmtp

Almalinux forums ( https://forums.almalinux.org/t/epel-repo-not-working-on-alma-10-for-x86-64-v2/5993/2 ) suggest that:
EPEL repo for 10.0 is not yet populated. It’s expected in about 2 weeks.
So far only EPEL for AlmaLinux Kitten 10 is available.
