First, take a deep breath. This does not mean PHP is removed or will be
anytime so please stop your morning plan to move off Suse. Read the release
notes and the SLES12 documentation that is on the website and it will become
more clear. SLES12 is different than older releases in their inclusion of
modules (not to be confused with kernel modules). In release notes:
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Modules offer a choice of supplemental packages,
ranging from tools for Web Development and Scripting, through a Cloud
Management module, all the way to a sneak preview of SUSE's upcoming management
tooling called Advanced Systems Management. Modules are part of your SUSE Linux
Enterprise Server subscription, are technically delivered as online
repositories, and differ from the base of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server only by
their lifecycle.
