Subject: [dev] Do we really want PHP 7 in Mageia 6? Date: Monday, December 28, 2015, 05:32:19 PM From: Pascal Terjan pterjan@gmail.com To: dev@ml.mageia.org dev@ml.mageia.org

SWIG does not support PHP7 and will probably not anytime soon as the API has changed a lot [1] and the main person working on PHP support in SWIG does not have time for it [2].

So we probably have 3 solutions:

• Go back to php5
• Disable php support in most packages
• Support 2 versions

See the e-mail above. The discussion is right now going into the direction of going back to PHP-5.6 for our next release. This would enable libkolab and libkolabxml to build again.
