No...
There is nothing pi-hole related in /bin and only /usr/bin/pihole-FTL.
I meant on your Debain P3 install.
I have taken the basics from Arch AUR which is unofficial and they apply a bunch of patches, but I am trying to follow the official pihole script (/usr/bin/pihole, as much as I can) and put things where they are expected.
I wont have to use as much of their patches because the defaults are more sane than what they are doing for some reason.
But I think that some things like updating the script itself will still be hacked out, and need to be done manually via a SlackBuild and pkgtools.
I did what I could to php, and having the alpine build in the same top dir is still required to build php. I might revisit that if/after pi-hole is working properly.
lighttpd is optional, there is also a config included for nginx if someone is more comfortable with that.
I can confirm, certain APPS will play movies without ads.
I will NOT name NAMES!!!!
This is really awesome to watch movies without pirating and having to watch the same ads/commercials constantly.
It can only get better or go downhill from here. Just sharing... I will do some binge watching over the weekend but will continue to support this endeavor. Me and my 4 year old son is having a good time.
Vudu does NOT support this method. I might have to dig deeper and more reading and block certain domains. I'm at 4.7 million. Some things will buffer but go back to the original resolution.
I might not write scripts, but I know how to test the hell out of some things.

I did install Debian last night to see how it gets setup there (What a nightmare just installing Debian was, I could have installed 14.2 and updated it twice for as long as Debian 10 took to install) but no matter what method I tried, script, clone-script, it would fail so I am not going to go through that nightmare again.
I went through the same thing, I compiled the wireless drivers on Slackware and put them on a USB. During debian installation it accepted the Broadcom drivers. This was how I got it working. After about 5 formats and installations I got it working.
