Description Jaco Kroon 2022-02-10 11:20:15 UTC

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function create_function() in /usr/share/php/Mail/mimeDecode.php:837

https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.create-function.php

There does not seem to be a newer version available.  Relevant bug:

https://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=23775

I tried to submit a patch but the system is broken, ended up sending an email to the pear-dev list, so time will tell.

Reproducible: Always
