Git is not svn. We are talking about the git master branch (here, the 1.5.x branch which is current master branch), not trunk

Are you serious? Buster (testing) support which is still in experimental state has just been added in the 1.5.x branch. There is no support for sid... Please, show us your full /etc/apt/sources.list file.

Regarding the installer error, I cannot reproduce the problem.

Please, result of the following command:

Shell-Script

COMPOSER_ALLOW_SUPERUSER=1 composer --working-dir=/var/local/imscp/packages show

Also please, retry with the -c option:

Shell-Script

perl imscp-autoinstall -dc

However, don't forget that we don't give support for unreleased versions.

I'm just wondering where the SID should come, because in my apt-source list are only Stretch server registered?

**Nuxwin** · Oct 25th 2017

@Speddy

Your souces.list looks correct at first reading. However the output of the lsb_release command looks bad.. Please, make a dist-upgrade (APT) and reboot the server. Also, show us the content of your /etc/apt/sources.list.d if it is not empty.

And please, rerun the installer with the -c option as stated in my previous post but first, do the dist upgrade and reboot.

**Speddy** · Oct 25th 2017

So ales so made as described in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d is blank

apt-get udate and dist-ugrade remacht rebbot once again packed and updated an lsb_release it's still sd trinne a relase wau ws ih nich.
because I run the stupa mt perl imscp-autoinstall -dc, again to the error message as in the first post I do not know now what I should still make I know @Nuxwin that you here is no support since it does not release, but I hope her can help me there.

**Nuxwin** · Oct 25th 2017

@Speedy

**Speddy** · Oct 25th 2017

Nuxwin sentence that I report here:

lsb_release problem fixed. You did a downgrade from buster to stretch somewhere but the base-files package was still the one from buster.

For the roundcube problem, there is a bug in current composer package which I'll fix (a symlink point to a missing directory)... I've fixed the problem quickly on your system by fetching all roundcube dependencies manually.
Please, don't run the installer again (as long as I don't say you that the problem is fixed in our i-MSCP Roundcube composer package).

Bug confirmed. This occurs only on system where the unzip package is installed.

Explanation

When the PHP dependency manager (Composer) unpack a dist version (zip archive) and that the unzip package is not installed on the target system, symlinks are replaced by regular files containing target file path... This is a known limitation in the ZipArchive PHP extension.

However, when the unzip package is available on the target system, the PHP dependency manager (Composer) will prefer it over the ZipArchive PHP extension and in such a case symlinks will be correctly created.

The problem is that in our 1.3.x (1.3.1) Roundcube composer package, we have broken symlinks and thus, when those symlinks are correctly created (presence of the unzip package on the target system), the i-MSCP installer fail to copy the file pointed by the symlinks...

See also: https://getcomposer.org/doc/ar…e-not-unpacked-correctly-

Well, there are many issues to address here:

We need ensure that the unzip package is installed on the system (we do not want the symlinks being replaced by regular files). FIXED in https://github.com/i-MSCP/imsc…3e32c0cdd4410c5d88aad2c4e
We need make sure that symlinks are not broken in our composer package (to be fixed)
We need make sure that our library is copying the symlinks and not the target files. FIXED in https://github.com/i-MSCP/imsc…55237148f5b3f3d4b21a0ef3c
