So, it is upto PHP and MySQL to decide on the working glue versions and provide the glue so that each can work well with each other.
Currently, PHP builds with MySQL 5.0 and ships PHP-MySQL library capturing MySQL 5.0 (SUNWmysql5u) as its dependency. Would you like us to continue with the same behavior ? If we do this, then within OpenSolaris 2008.11, 'amp-dev' or ?mp' meta cluster within IPS will only bring/install MySQL 5.0 component as the default database. Is your team okay with this ? Now, if you split existing MySQL 5.0 to also include client runtime libraries, then we can modify 'amp' or 'amp-dev' meta cluster within OpenSolaris 2008.11 to include Apache 2.2.9, PHP 5.2.6. MySQL 5.0 client libraries and MySQL 5.1 server. This is just my 2c worth thought. - Sriram > -- Lars > > > > Sriram Natarajan wrote, On 08/ 7/08 07:45 AM: > >> Do you have ARC approval in the current state ?
