[opensuse-buildservice] php5 on sles11
A recent update to php5 on SLES11 moved from 5.2.6 to 5.2.14. However builds are still against 5.2.6, meaning all the independent php5-* packages are still picking up a requirement on php5 = 5.2.6, rendering them uninstallable. How can we build against 5.2.14 so we get packages compatible with the updated version?

Hi Peter, we've got the very same problem, here's the reply I got from this list on the topic: --- start quote ---
I just noticed, that SLES 10/11 (latest SP) upgraded the php5 Version to 5.2.14 - the buildservice still uses older php versions: SLES 10 SP3 : 5.2.5 SLES 11 SP1: 5.2.6
Will the updated versions be available in OBS? Or is there a different repository with latest patches for SLES (something like "openSUSE:11.3:Update" in the opensuse world?)
No, there isn't. But SLE updates should stay compatible, so it should not be a problem to build against the old version. (what is needed anyway, since SLE updates are optional to install unlike openSUSE). --- end quote --- I asked our Novell support engineer about this, and he agrees about the "should stay compatible" part, however the php-Macros Requires: php(zend-abi) = %{php_zend_api} Requires: php(api) = %{php_core_api} report changes in the API, so the new packages can no longer be used (maybe they might work if we ignored the dependencies, but this will break updates). I hope there'll be a solution for this problem soon.
Thanks, Peter
