The packages were written likely written a long time ago. Modern PHP
isn't as bad as it used to be, but I'd still avoid it in favor of
newer languages.

I have this problem with Ruby. A lot of people started writing Ruby code.

Do you have any problems with roundcube?

Just Java, Ruby, and Perl from the look of it...

Most likely because every web hosting package has php/mysql installed?
