Not true. I believe it should not spread outside it's niche - serving web pages. I am free to do so, since I can decide what I want to support. Packaging is not just simple process of throwing some scripts in debian/ directory, it also means you have to take care of bugreports and that you actually care about quality of the final distribution. I don't want to argue about quality of php, it's out of topic in this bug, I am sure you can find all references to inconsistent APIs, incompatible changes between releases, bad design decisions, inconsistent function behaviour, etc. > Considering that you are refusing to package part of PHP because you > dislike PHP, I think resignation would be a good idea. Well, feel free to do a QA (I mean real bug testing, not just pushing features you want because you wrote phc) with the massive amount of bugs at http://bugs.debian.org/src:php5 We are constantly in lack of manpower. -- [needs-packaging] php5-embed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
