> What support do you feel is currently missing? What's probably missing is puppet support so that you can just apply a role to a cloud VPS and get a LAMP with PHP8 without manually setting it up.
role::simplelamp2 which is for that currently supports stretch, buster, bullseye with PHP 7.0 through 7.4 but not PHP8. For that one has to add the Sury repos. For wow to do it manually see for example https://www.linuxshelltips.com/install-php-8-debian/ But we could add support for this to the puppet role, if that is something there is interest for. That way it becomes easier for users to end up with always the same LAMP system.
