 New Comment:

Why do you guys even argue about this?

This is not a problem of PHP. It is a problem of Debian. If they don't like the 
license then they can just replace the code. Or they can go forward and drop 
the 
whole PHP package from their distribution. (Which is the usual threat from 
Debian 
mainteiners.)

Not a bug in PHP.

Stas: Of course it's a PHP bug.  PHP don't live in a vacuum, but has thriving 
ecosystem of various users/packagers/distributors/distributions/etc. and they 
are 
all affected by the choice you (as PHP) make.

It's not healthy to dug the head into the sand and pretend that it's not a 
_PHP_ 
bug, since it affects the users of PHP.

Stas: We (PHP) provide the code, and the eco system clearly has a problem with 
it. We could either keep ignoring it while they provide a replacement code, or 
adopt it officially to make everyone happy.

@seld Mandriva/Fedora/Debian have drop json non-free extension but provides 
jsonc dropin alternative (php5-json 1.3.1 for debian).

So, your comment is not PHP related. See debian packager to have this package 
installed when needed (pulled by main php package for Fedora).
