Description valli 2007-04-25 11:55:47 UTC

I've noticed that the ming USE flag disappeared in dev-lang/php-5.2.1
After Googling this issue I found:

"The Ming extension was removed from our PHP 5.2 ebuild, because
there were serious problems with compilation and the required
Ming library. This functionality will be reintroduced later
as an independant, external PHP extension."

When will this be the case?

Reproducible: Always
