The PHP Herd announces that the old-style PHP packages, which were |
2 |
unsupported and deprecated for months, are finally going away. |
3 |
After months of work, the team considers the new dev-lang/php package |
4 |
and the related dev-php[4,5]/ categories fully ready for production use, |
5 |
and encourage all users to upgrade. |
6 |
Helpful informations can be found at the PHP project’s pages [1], along |
7 |
with a HOWTO [2] regarding the migration to dev-lang/php. |
8 |
The old-style PHP packages (dev-php/php, dev-php/php-cgi, |
9 |
dev-php/mod_php, dev-php/PECL-*, and older dev-php/PEAR-* packages) will |
10 |
be package.masked on Wednesday, 19 April 2006, and removed from the |
11 |
Portage tree about a month later. |
