I was just thinking to add php5 as an "or" option in the rules file. That
way the current php4 stuff is not affected. Am I missing something in
thinking that that is simple? I have tried apting from source, modifiying
the rules file the rebuilding myself but I ran into a snag with the
dl.sourceforge... site not responding for a language file download of some
sort. In general I would rather be made aware of the new downstream
security updates instead up packaging it myself.
Thanks for you help.
