1 Hi,
2
3 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85082 made me consider about
4 third-party php-extensions modifying php.ini. Why doesn't php ebuilds
5 use the scan-dir feature ('--with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php.d') like
6 RedHats do?
7
8 Every third-party extension gets its own config file
9 (/etc/php.d/extension.ini) and unmerging will be no pain anymore.
10
11 The following php extensions modify the global php.ini, by using
12 php-ext-base_addtoinifiles (module specific entries entry)
13 and php-ext-source_src_install (extension=extension.so entry):
14
15 dev-php/PECL-apc
16 dev-php/php-accelerator
17 dev-php/phpdbg
18 dev-php/turck-mmcache
19 dev-php/accelerator
20
21 But with more extensions to appear, php.ini will get more
22 complex.
