Hi,
The 5.2.9 PHP packages available in the testing repo are missing some extra components that upstream does not build. For the normal PHP 5.1.6 this was solved by packages in Extras or other 3th party repos. But for the 5.2.9 PHP there were missing until know. I've just build them and they are available in the testing repo (http://dev.centos.org/centos/5/testing). The provided extra packages are php-tidy, php-readline, php-mssql, php-mcrypt, php-mhash and php-dbase.
A warning, there are untested packages. So I would really appreciate if people could test these new packages and let us know if they work or not.
Regards, Tim
Hey Tim,
thank you for working on these packages. They are very important for our projects. I'm part of the developer team of TYPO3 content management system. We have a lot of clients that run CentOS 5 and cannot upgrade to the latest version of TYPO3 (as it requires PHP 5.2).
I will be testing these packages in the next days and report back if we have any problems with them.
All the best, Benni Mack
