Now, can we please get rid of all the php-EXTENSION.spec stuff and move
it into php.spec? This way the extensions will build safely and allways
be in sync. Could we at least have a vote about this?
What say you fellow Cookers?
It's a tough call. On one hand, it's nice to only have to update a
single package if that extension was updated. On the other hand, if we
get these version mismatches all the time, then it's more of a pain.
If it is reasonable to keep them separate, that would be my preference.
But I am not the poor soul who has to keep these in order :)
Please forgive whatever I was smoking when I wrote this last week. This
is a maintenance nightmare for poor Oden, et al. These generates files
are mostly a few k in size, so who cares if a fix in one requires to
build them all.
Please do yourself a favor and merge them.
No, I think it was me who must have smoked something or ate something out of
the ordinary when I wrote my post...
As someone else pointed out, with the current setup it's easy to rebuild the
extensions whenever we have a new lib availible. For example if libxmlrpc is
updated, just rebuild php-xmlrpc. I'm not going to maintain these forever, as
my work is done. The splits and breakouts are done now, I just hope something
didn't break in this process. The only thing that's left is to try and
breakout openssl and pcre, but I wasn't able to last time I tried...
My goal was to have a php-snmp package, but I got sort of carried away and
did some others too :-)
Chears.
