Hello,
> There are two web servers in Debian that we provide PHP support for which > require ZTS to be enabled. Which webservers DO ACTUALLY *REQUIRE* zts and why exactly? Please explain. > ..support for a binary-only proprietary > extension is secondary to this. Steve, even ZENDs - "the php company" own prducts, like the Zend Platform, DO NOT support ZTS !!! The Zend Platform wont even work with an apache2 threaded environment! So there is no real use for zts as well. Please read the details ZEND explains.. The same issue for the gpl project: eaccelerator (the TurckMMcache successor). And PDFlib, as reported by Kasper Schoonman. One more time: ZTS IS EXERIMENTAL - even the compile flag is called that way!! ZTS-OFF *is* currently standard. > It is trivial for any code to be recompiled.. Steve, honestly please contact either segv74 [EMAIL PROTECTED] or Reiner Jung, the developers of eccellerator! They found no simple "wrap-it-up and recompile" way for the binary cache. If you have the solution - please let world know and enjoy! > If the vendor providing your binary-only extension is not willing to do this.. As explained above its not a question of the "vendor". > then you will not be able to use the Debian PHP4 packages, sorry. Okay, let me sum this up: Although you have given NO SINGLE CLUE why EXACTLY this EXPERIMENTAL flag suddenly is turned on for SARGE and many users will defintely suffer from this, you plan to stick to a PRIVATE PERSONAL decission? This is not why i put debian.charite.de to life, it is not the way debian is meant.
