Package: php-gettext Version: 1.0.11-3 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
It seems to me that php-gettext depends on php-mbstring, but it is not listed as a dependency. Trying to use php-gettext without having php-mbstring installed results in the following fatal error: Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function mb_detect_encoding() in /usr/share/php/php-gettext/gettext.inc:177 -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers xenial-updates APT policy: (500, 'xenial-updates'), (500, 'xenial-security'), (500, 'xenial'), (100, 'xenial-backports') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.4.0-22-generic (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages php-gettext depends on: ii php-php-gettext 1.0.11-3 php-gettext recommends no packages. php-gettext suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
