Fileinfo pecl package is unmaintained anymore [1] and Php team announced that fileinfo is included in PHP 5.3.x release [2]. A detailed procedure to build this pecl module with Debian way [3] is generaly sufficient for having fileinfo support. 1: http://pecl.php.net/package/Fileinfo, moved to php-src/ext/fileinfo 2: http://qa.php.net/, (5.3.0beta1 at this time) 3: http://www.dotdeb.org/2008/09/25/how-to-package-php-extensions-by-yourself/ I think that this bug can be assigned to php5 package and closed when PHP 5.3.x will be included in sid. In case if packaging of php-fileinfo is *really* needed, i could adopt and work and it. -- Guillaume Delacour
