Description Simon Detheridge 2004-06-15 08:57:54 UTC

There is no ebuild for php 5 release candidate 3. This is supposed to be the final rc before release, so it would be good to have an ebuild to test this before the final version is out.

Reproducible: Always

Wither this is fixed or you didn

Comment 2 Christian Korff 2004-07-03 06:28:59 UTC

Wither this is fixed or you didn´t look at /usr/portage/dev-php/php/php-5.0.0.ebuild
This is there the php-gentoo guys are hiding RC3.
imho a really bad idea to manage. php-5.0.0_rc3 would by a good name but I don´t know how portage handle this suffixes.

The final release of php5 is 'any day now', or so I've been promised.  I've added the php-5.0.0 and mod_php-5.0.0 ebuilds to use RC3; they will never be marked as stable on any of our supported platforms.  Once php5 final comes out, I'll version-bump to php-5.0.0-r1, and look to get that marked as stable.

Or, to put it another way, RC3 isn't going to be in Portage for very long at all.

Best regards,
Stu
