I'm not quite comfortable with the fact that Centmin Mod installs its own source-compiled versions of nginx and PHP-FPM instead of using proven reliable packages from the base OS and epel+remi repositories that it enables anyway. There's not much point in using a stable binary distribution like CentOS if you're going to ignore well-tested binary packages and compile your own all the time. You might as well just use a cutting-edge distro like Arch Linux or non-LTS Ubuntu, or even go hardcore Gentoo.
Let's say you installed PHP 5.4 (the default recommended version). That version of PHP will stop receiving security fixes after
September 14, 2015 --
only 3 weeks from today. Then what? Do we rely on the Centmin Mod team to backport security fixes to their source-compiled version of PHP 5.4? Force-upgrade to a newer version that the maintainers say may be incompatible? Force-downgrade to a version that is officially maintained by Red Hat & CentOS? None of this would have been an issue if you just did "yum install php".
hybinet depends on what you need from Nginx.. no distro YUM repo provided Nginx or Debian/Ubuntu apt-get provided repo of Nginx will provide the Nginx modules that Centmin Mod Nginx comes with by default - see list and configuration at
http://centminmod.com/nginx.html including both HTTP/2 and ngx_pagespeed and Nginx lua support. But yes I understand what you mean for YUM repo maintainers like CentOS who usually can backport fixes into same version packages.
Centmin Mod PHP-FPM allows users to update PHP via centmin.sh menu option 5 to whatever PHP version they want to use. Just specify the version number at command prompt i.e. 5.4.44, 5.5.28, 5.6.12 or 7.0.0RC1. See example of updating to PHP 5.6.12 at
https://community.centminmod.com/posts/17168/ and also outlined at
http://centminmod.com/phpfpm.html where you can setup Centmin Mod with a different default PHP version i.e. PHP 5.6.12 if you want just by editing centmin.sh prior to initial install.
Centmin Mod was built so that end users can update Nginx and PHP-FPM whenever they want with whichever Nginx or PHP versions they want to use without any reliance on my to update Centmin Mod most of the time (with exception of bleeding end versions like PHP 7.0.0RC1 needed a minor update from me).
See FAQ 18 at
http://centminmod.com/faq.html as to why Nginx and PHP-FPM are compiled via source compile. Basically, Centmin Mod end users can update to latest versions via tarball which is some cases is faster than waiting for distro or 3rd party provided YUM repos i.e. Nginx 1.9.x with HTTP/2 support and PHP 7.0.0RC and also PHP 7.0.0 master dev support if you specify PHP version as 7.0.0 at prompt.
Centmin Mod shell menu allows users to update Nginx via option 4 and PHP-FPM via option 5 without any waiting on me to update Centmin Mod
