Public bug reported:
[Impact]
* Starting with php 7.1 variables initialized as empty strings are no
more converted to array with a following assignment. Hoteldruid used
many empty string initializations for arrays until version 2.2.2
(current version in Bionic), version 2.2.3 (already in Cosmic) fixes
this. Many warnings about deprecated features in php 7.2 are also fixed
with hoteldruid version 2.2.3.
* Many of these errors make hoteldruid unusable and there could be
potential data losses. For example only 3 wrong dates are displayed in
date pickers, so it's not possible to insert prices or insert a
reservation. Another example is when modifying language or graphic
themes, all previous selections are lost and it falls back to default
values.
[Test Case]
* Install hoteldruid in Bionic and open it in your browser (you can use
the menu entry provided by the package), if needed make the login into
hoteldruid. You'll land in hoteldruid main menu where you can see there
is a form to check availability where only dates from "December 31,
1901" to "January 2, 1902" will be available, instead of all dates of
2018. The same happens in all other pages.
[Regression Potential]
* The chance of regression is low as there are no other packages that
depend (or recommend or suggest) hoteldruid. Also the new upstream
version is a point release consisting mostly of bugfixes.
