installing on Centos 8.2 - Apache prerequisite failures

I also get the error on an empty installation of centos 8.3

checking for nghttp2... checking for user-provided nghttp2 base directory... none

*** There was an error while trying to configure Apache 2. Check the configure/ap2/configure.apache file


Operating System: CentOS Linux 8
CPE OS Name: cpe:/o:centos:centos:8
Kernel: Linux 4.18.0-240.1.1.el8_3.x86_64
Architecture: x86-64
I can confirm the same on CentOS 8.3 (Already converted to CL 8)
Fixed it by running
yum install libnghttp2-devel

Then I got another issue

configure: error: Package requirements (oniguruma) were not met: Package 'oniguruma', required by 'virtual:world', not found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables ONIG_CFLAGS and ONIG_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. *** There was an error while trying to configure php. Check the configure file PHP has been secured. Restarting php-fpm74.



I converted back to plain CentOS and installed Direct Admin on CentOS 8.3 without an issue. Guessing there are issues with PowerTools on CL. Renaming it to powertools does not fix it
 
Guys!
we need to install mcrypt extension for php 7.4.19. Kindly help urgently.
 
Mcrypt is deprecated since php 7.1 but you can install it via pecl.
this is for php 7.2 but might also work for php 7.4 when adjusting the commands.

I'm not sure about that so use at your own risk.
I also found this thread, which contains the same information.
