And when you install Plesk you must take the step of updating it. You
can do it with apt (which is available as an RPM) in less than ten
minutes of your time, plus about a half-hour or so (depending on
connectivity) of automated time. So it's not that hard.
Yes, Plesk doesn't warn you, and a lot of people don't really understand
the issues, but all in all, it's pretty easy to do.
