Santiago, src:php5 is going to be killed from testing soon and it's not going to be part of next stable release. Do you still think it's worth updating it for source-only uploads? I know that you put some effort into this, but I am keeping php5 in unstable just for the sake of security- and proposed-updates right now (and there are still some r-deps that needs to be fixed before I can kill it from ).
