hey folks, as i mentioned a couple weeks ago, php4 is going to be removed from testing/unstable. before we can remove this, however, we need to update and/or remove a significant number of other packages from unstable. but, before i go crazy mass-bugfiling, i'm requesting here that if you maintain a package that depends on php4, you save me a little work and fix your package. in two weeks' time i'll start the mass filing for packages which haven't been fixed. i've created a small wiki page with more information here: http://wiki.debian.org/PHP4Removal which details what you need to do if your package depends on something php4-related, and contains a "current status" table to track progress. feel free to update the status table for your package, or for other maintainers' packages if you're in generous/helpful/bored mood. below is a list of affected package/maintainer pairs, generated from: grep-aptavail -n -F Depends \ -s Package,Maintainer -e 'php4|phpapi-20050606' \ --and --not -F Source -X php4 --and --not -F Depends php5 \ --and --not -F Package -X php4 \ | paste -sd " \n" | sort note that if your package already depends on the php5 or php4 based versions of something, then you don't need to do anything at all (and your name shouldn't be listed in that case). the current recommendation is to leave the php4 dependency in place in such cases, as it may help backporters etc. any questions, feel free to ask. sean the list: achims-guestbook Tim Peeler <thp@linuxforce.net> acidlab-pgsql Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Pen~a <jfs@computer.org> amavis-stats Jean-Michel Kelbert <kelbert@debian.org> axyl Paul Waite <paul@waite.net.nz> bandersnatch-frontend Polkan Alexis Garcia Rodriguez <pagarcia@slcolombia.org> bbclone Tiago Bortoletto Vaz <tiago@debian-ba.org> dcl Anibal Monsalve Salazar <anibal@debian.org> dh-make-php Uwe Steinmann <steinm@debian.org> ezpublish-src Jonas Smedegaard <dr@jones.dk> freeradius-dialupadmin Stephen Gran <sgran@debian.org> gallimimus Matthew Palmer <mpalmer@debian.org> gforge-db-postgresql Roland Mas <lolando@debian.org> gforge-plugin-scmcvs Roland Mas <lolando@debian.org> gforge-plugin-scmsvn Roland Mas <lolando@debian.org> gforge-web-apache Roland Mas <lolando@debian.org> ibwebadmin Debian QA Group <packages@qa.debian.org> irm Matthew Palmer <mpalmer@debian.org> kcachegrind-converters Debian Qt/KDE Maintainers <debian-qt-kde@lists.debian.org> kolab-resource-handlers Debian Kolab Maintainers <pkg-kolab-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org> kolab-webadmin Debian Kolab Maintainers <pkg-kolab-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org> libphp-jpgraph Christian Bayle <bayle@debian.org> libphp-phplayersmenu Jose Carlos Medeiros <debian@psabs.com.br> libphp-phplot Jeremy T.
