Comment: Nope, same as last time: Why throwing away a working solution?
Because it does not work, increases complexity and there is only one supported $MAJOR php version, 5.X the "pear" update alternatives part did some funny things sometimes linking the pear executable with the "php5" executable.
This is waiting for pain when php6 will come out one day.
Well, the day PHP6 comes out we can introduce this layer again the codebase that was supposed to become PHP6 has been abandoned around a year ago..just FYI...
Or if it is decided to have php4 in Factory again (for whatever reason).
In that case, move along, seriously, Im not going to invest any time supporting insane scenarios. One version running correctly than a crazy ass mess to satisfy a few users. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
