Hey,
I would like to remove php5 from Tumbleweed.
The impulse to consider it is the plan to switch to openssl 1.1 [0]. Support for 5.6 ended on 19 Jan 2017 [1] and upstream will not backport the changeset related to openssl 1.1 in 5.6 branch [2].
Of course I am planning to create devel:languages:php:php56 and keep the current version of php 5.6 building there for Tumbleweed as long as feasible.
I propose to drop php5 from Tumbleweed at the end of August.

Dear Petr, can't openssl 1.1 and older versions be available in parallel? Will the next Leap version contain PHP 5.6? If that is the case, for me it would be ok to remove from factory. PHP5 Security Support ends at 31 Dec 2018 [1]. It would be great to have PHP in Leap up to the end. There are still many products around which do not yet work with PHP7. -- Johannes Weberhofer Weberhofer GmbH, Austria, Vienna -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
