Have you considered to run the official Roundcube container image as a 
podmans systemd service?

https://hub.docker.com/r/roundcube/roundcubemail/

https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/improved-systemd-podman (Podman >= 2.0 
required, but it's only a systemd service file to be created manually)

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for your suggestion. No, I'm not really thinking about
docker/podman. I prefer having clean system installs, even if I have to
create RPMs myself. This has worked fine for the last two decades but yes,
I'm afraid, this is considered old school these days :-)
