Everybody running a nextcloud server on Tumbleweed should be aware that it currently does *not* work with PHP 7.4.
Why this warning? That should be pretty obvious:
Problem: nothing provides mod_php_any < 7.4.0 needed by nextcloud-17.0.1-1.1.
2. It raises the question why Tumbleweed ships an PHP update which prevents the installation of applications also shipped with Tumbleweed. IMHO this contradicts the aim to ship a quality-tested rolling release.
Simple: PHP is tested (in openQA); Nextcloud is not. So there was no indication that this would break. At any given time, there are dozens of uninstallable packages in Tumbleweed, see https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory:Staging/dashbo... I'll just drop nextcloud from openSUSE:Factory - so we don't ship the broken stuff and also don't have to ship PHP 7.3 with open CVEs IMHO, NextCloud is given 'too much power in blocking server admins to update to latest / secure versions of PHP'; They simply ignore all of the beta phase for php. Even though tickets are filed long ago. IIRC, php7.4 tickets were filed with nextcloud in July - The plan is to support PHP 7.4 only with NC18 (supposedly comming out January, so at least the gap is not huge this time) Cheers, Dominique
