I am expecting they will need to move to the remi repo because php-5.4 is shipped in RHEL and we do not over-write those packages. In the past RHEL would have shipped a php56 which would have done this, but I expect that they instead are wanting people to use SCL's for this. Which would require us to either ship the SCLs ourselves (as we can't assume a person has that repo turned on) or we create a repository which requires them so that people aren't broken. There is another option where someone packages up the php56 rpms in some way which could be shipped in EPEL, but I think that is a large amount of work and I believe remi has pointed people to use scl's instead. > Thanks, > -- > Sérgio M.
