[webmin-l] PHP-FPM on Debian with sury.org packages

Hello!

The php packages from https://packages.sury.org/  are named like
"phpx.y-fpm"
The files contained in the package are, for example:
root@virtualmin:~# dpkg -L php7.3-fpm
/.
/etc
/etc/apache2
/etc/apache2/conf-available
/etc/apache2/conf-available/php7.3-fpm.conf

This layout is not picked up by php-lib.pl, because the dot inside the
package names/paths is deliberately being masked/removed inside multiple
parts of php-lib.pl.

Removing these from around lines 947, 1316, 1711 1732,1766, 1780  - without
knowing exactly  what am I breaking - the packages get picked accepted as a
valid FPM version, the pool configuration files are created properly, and
everything works as expected.

My questions are:
1; Why is the version dot removed in the first place?
2; I know RPM-based distributions are preferred for running Virtualmin, but
would there be a way to make support for sury.org PHP packages without
breaking anything?
3; Is there a way to modify the pool configration generated by php-lib.pm?
Details regarding this question:
- In php-lib.pl  I see "web_phpchildren" would be substituted, but I don't
know where to set that value inside virtualmin
- Inside "Server templates > PHP configuraton" I see templates, but that is
not related to the pool configuration generated
- Would It be possible to have templating for the whole pool file generated?



Thanks,
M
