https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=237231 ------- Comment #2 from mlemos@acm.org 2007-01-21 19:28 MST ------- Thank you Christian. I do not use RPM packages for PHP in production because I compile PHP manually to be linked as a module of Apache 1.3.x. PHP 4 static linked with Apache 1.3.x can run much more efficently than with Apache 2, even more than PHP 5 with Apache 2. So I am not concerned with the PHP version supported by SuSE . I just reported this problem because I just upgraded my development machine to OpenSuSE 10.2 and I could not find the e-mail address of who packaged the PHP 4 release. The problem does not affect me much as I do not use my development machine to send e-mail of my PHP sites. BTW, before OpenSuSE newer versions adoption is also affected, you may want to review these statistics of adoption of PHP versions. As you may notice all PHP 5 releases only achieved 13% of all servers with PHP after more than 2 years of the first release. At the same time PHP 4.4 releases achieved more than 44%, even though PHP 4.4 was released one year after PHP 5.0 . The reason for this is mostly due to excessive backwards incompatible changes that break existing sites when switching to PHP 5. I thought you may want to be aware of this when dealing with the consequences of dropping support to PHP 4. http://www.nexen.net/chiffres_cles/phpversion/evolution_de_php_sur_internet_... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
