Trying to install on a brand new server with Debian 11, setup.sh fails with this message.

Vous devez explicitement sélectionner un paquet à installer.

E: Le paquet « perl-modules » n'a pas de version susceptible d'être installée

The packet perl-modules under Debian 11 is a virtual packet which couldn't be installed.

I modified the script /usr/local/directadmin/scripts/setup.sh, removing 2 instances of perl-modules and edited the global setup.sh commenting out the line "tar xvzf..." that was already unarchived.

Then it succeded installing !
 
That's odd. Because if I go looking under Debian packages, these are present:

Pakket perl-modules-5.32​

Pakket perl-modules-5.34​

I'm not really very well known with French, but if I read this:
Vous devez explicitement sélectionner un paquet à installer.
Click to expand...
it means: You must explicitly select a package to install.

So probably it would have been enough to remove this line:
perl-modules-5.28 5.28.1-6+deb10u1

I presume you did the pre-install commands before for Debian 10?

So I would still try to install the perl-modules via apt if I was you.
 
Hi Richard,

Yes, those packages 5.32 and 5.34 are installed on my server as well !
But it is incorrect to ask for installation of perl-modules because you have to explicitely ask for either perl-modules-5.32 or 5.34 (or both)

It doesn't work with "apt install perl-modules", as the setup.sh script is using that (with other packages) and that's what is complaining. ;)

Greetings,

Dan
