Package: php4-syck Severity: grave Tags: sid Due to recent changes in the php4 packages, your package has become uninstallable in sid (as of today's dinstall run, installing php4_4:4.3.10-3). We are now building php4 with "Zend Thread Safety" which both changes the ABI and changes the directory that extensions should be installed into.
Furthermore, it has come to my attention while investigating these bug reports that your package doesn't correctly depend on "phpapi-$(version)", as it should. Please see php4-pgsql for an example of how this is supposed to be done. To build a new package, you need to do three things: 1) build-dep on "php4-dev (>= 4:4.3.10-3)" (you can pull it from incoming to get a head start. The buildds already do) 2) ensure that your phpapi dependency has "-zts" tacked to the end of it. for examples on how to do so, see the debian/rules in php4-pgsql_3:4.3.10-1 3) Make sure that your extension installs to the correct directory (you do use `php-config --extension-dir`, don't you?) That should be it. Due to the simplicity and non-intrusiveness of these changes, if I don't see uploads in the next 24 hours, I will happily NMU to fix the affected packages. ...
