Bug#704457: [php-maint] Bug#704457: gd extension broken due new embedded libgd functions not added to gd_compat layer

2013-04-09 Thread Ondřej Surý
I would recommend to NOT USE php from experimental if you need to rely on it.


The version in experimental is not intended to be used for anything than 
testing.

 i noticed on php.net that another php beta release should be available in a
 few days, I was hoping that this an interim version (5.5.0~beta2-2
 perhaps?) could be uploaded already, because the owncloud 5.0.3 package was
 uploaded yesterday and it seems to require gd to work. So this is no longer
 a matter of merely having persistent error notifications.
 If this is not possible, I will just have to wait a little while longer
 (it's all from experimental anyway, so it's to be expected). It might still
 be useful to communicate this to the owncloud maintainers though.
