Virtualmin can not install webalizer

SYSTEM INFORMATION
OS type and version Rocky Linux 9.5
Virtualmin version 7.30.2 GPL

I want to enable webalizer under Features and Plugins, it was not installed so Virtualmin wanted to install it.
This is what I get:

Now installing webalizer …

Installing package(s) with command /bin/dnf -y install webalizer ..

Last metadata expiration check: 0:12:46 ago on Fri Dec 13 03:15:58 2024.
No match for argument: webalizer
Error: Unable to find a match: webalizer

.. install failed!

dnf search also brings no match.

Rocky doesn’t provide a Webalizer package. That’s expected behavior. We also do not provide a Webalizer package. It is unmaintained upstream, last I checked, and has been for many years.

So why does Virtualmin has the option then?

Webalizer is not enabled by default in Virtualmin.

OK, we’ll hide it. It’s an ancient feature that existed before Virtualmin became modular. So, it’s not a module we can just stop installing. And, if we remove it, I’m sure there’s folks out there with old systems that still have Webalizer who’ll be mad at us.
