    Just uninstall yum and install apt from rpm and configure it to your liking.. its not exactly rocket science.. especially when dealing with rpms.

    Default arg..

    arg..

    i know how to use uninstall yum and install apt-get.

    the point is that cpanel uses yum by default. how do i change that to apt-get for all their installer and scripts? is there a setting in cpanel i can set??

    This should do it:

    rm -f /var/cpanel/useyum
    touch /var/cpanel/useapt

    On second thought, im not sure if the above is even used anymore. What happens when you run upcp now that apt is installed ?
