I just made a port for the yaz php extension. Now since there are many such extensions that are all potential ports, does anybody any naming scheme proposition ?

How about

www/php_yaz

Hmm. Do we have any ports for php extensions yet? I don't think we do. I was just recently thinking we should have a way to build eaccelerator for php in MacPorts but hadn't yet thought how. And someone just asked me to add support for memcache to php5.

How would php_yaz know whether to build for php4 or php5? Would there be variants? Or would there be two ports, php4_yaz and php5_yaz? I think the latter is how the Python extensions are being done but I don't exactly know why that's better than using variants.

See also the recent discussion about being able to "select" which version of php (python, gcc, etc.) you want to use.
