AI & phpMyAdmin

I am reading through AI and I wondered why phpMyAdmin ver. 4.9.0.1 is installed on Debian 11 and not the latest 5.2.x one? Is there a reason?

P.S.: I have seen the script by Th0m to keep phpMyAdmin up-to-date. As far as I understood, that one would update to 5.2.x.

 

No it does not:

Code:

class ISPConfigDebian11OS extends ISPConfigDebian10OS {
...
}
class ISPConfigDebian10OS extends ISPConfigDebianOS {
protected function installPHPMyAdmin($mysql_root_pw) {
...
$cmd = 'chown -R www-data:www-data ' . escapeshellarg('/var/lib/phpmyadmin') . ' ; cd /tmp ; rm -f phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages.tar.gz ; wget "https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/4.9.0.1/phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages.tar.gz" 2>/dev/null && tar xfz phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages.tar.gz && cp -a phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages/* /usr/share/phpmyadmin/ && rm -f phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages.tar.gz && rm -rf phpMyAdmin-4.9.0.1-all-languages';
...
}
}

 

And there wasn't a package in Debian 10...
Would you recommend the package (5.0.4 or even 5.1.1 in backports) for Debian 11 or the manual installation?

 

So you would stick with the official version instead of the package?

 

Some days ago, I found a short description here on howtoforge.com how and where to install the actual version of phpmyadmin.

Code:

https://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-and-secure-phpmyadmin-on-debian-11/

Is it safe, to replace the actual content of /usr/share/phpmyadmin/, wich was brought by the ispconfig-autoinstaller-script yesterday, with the actual version from https://files.phpmyadmin.net/phpMyAdmin/5.2.0/phpMyAdmin-5.2.0-all-languages.zip ?

Thanks for answers!
