How to easily install from the backports repository or upgrade your manually installed phpMyAdmin web database management system on Debian 10 (Buster) servers

PhpMyAdmin is an essential accessory for LAMP and other more complex servers, allowing us to conveniently manage our databases in a web interface. The phpMyAdmin web database management interface installation package was not previously available in the official Debian 10 (Buster) repository. So when I created the installer description for the Debian 10 LAMP server, I still had to install it manually. Since then, however, Debian has made the phpMyAdmin package available in the backports repository. In this description, in addition to the previous Debian 10 (Buster) LAMP server installation description, we will install our favorite web database manager from the backports repository, among other things, following the changes that have taken place in the meantime.

Debian Backports

Debian in its stable version offers the use of stable packages by default, which can be used to build extremely reliable systems. The packages in it have been tested as extensively as possible, so there is almost no chance of anything going wrong with them. However, this has the disadvantage that in many cases the packages are not up-to-date, so it is often the case that newer versions of the same packages are available in other Linux distributions. Debian offers the Backports repository to remedy this.

On March 2019, 20, Debian moved the entire Debian 7 (Wheezy) repositories and the non-LTS repositories of Debian 8 (Jessie) to archive.debian.org. For Debian 8 (Jesssie), archiving affects the jessie-updates and jessie-backports repositories, so they are no longer available in the Debian main repository, but only in the archive, and no security updates are available for them. In this tutorial we will look at how to configure the APT package manager repositories so that we can continue to upgrade our Debian 8 (Jessie) system smoothly.
