[Bug 394385] Re: [karmic] php packages need update to 5.3

2009-08-12 Thread KevinVanZonneveld
And of course credits to Arnold Daniels who made the patch.

I wonder, could this call for a separate PHP version inside Ubuntu so that you 
could both install:
 - php5 - php5.2
 - php5.3

From the Karmic repositories?

Giving people some time to:
 - run their Jaunty sites on Karmic without any problems. Upgrade is seamless.
 - test-drive php5.3 the way it will be shipped with Karmic+1 (this could be 
uncompromising: short tags off by default, and everything, making it 
future-proof)

Obviously this excludes the LTS folks who won't face the PHP
compatibility issues until April 2010 - if they upgrade immediately, or
- 2013 if they really want to stretch it.

2009-08-10 Thread KevinVanZonneveld
I've been reading up on:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/Server/20090707

Great job coming up with a php 5.3 suhosin patch so soon Raphael, thanks
a lot for that.

It would be very to have late static binding (, 20% perfomance boost,
namespaces, closures, etc) in Karmic already.

I think it may even convince some PHP people to give Ubuntu a try, if
they're stuck on  5.3 versions with their distro of choice.


On the other hand, some things really are a bit different from 5.2:
http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/prepare_for_php_53/ 
(sorry for the plug)

..and people may not want to upgrade their webservers to Karmic in fear
of breaking their PHP apps; currently running fine on Jaunty.

Most of the resulting impact can be hidden/minimized by tinkering with
some ini settings (still enable shorttags, hide deprecated messages),
but the quest rises if that's the way to fly. It will only make it
harder for PHPers to upgrade to future version that will totally drop
support for some functions  features.
