Hi,
So, it seems that the current version of PHP in Centos 7 is PHP 5.4.16 however this version of PHP stopped getting security support from the PHP people one month ago [1].
Now, our developers want to use the new and shiny PHP because they want to use the latest version of Zend. They are proposing using this package [2] but I never heard of this repo.
Other than building the packages ourselves is there a more acceptable way to run a later version of PHP?
Thoughts? Experiences? Ramblings?
Ta,
Andrew
