Hmm... Wouldn't then be better to keep PHP 5.2 available in ports (e.g.
lang/php52)? Not only for the sake of FreeBSD-based WEB-servers with
ZendOptimizer port installed - I suspect there could be other reasons to stay
with PHP 5.2 while it's still available...


Sincerely, Dmitry

Agreed, php5.2 should be kept. There are lots of project which are yet
incompatible with php5.3, like zabbix1.6. PHP 5.3 has brought lots of
changes which are not backward-compatible.

Another plea to retain 5.2.X as a separate port.

5.3 is really a major version upgrade, even if they didn't decide to
call it 6.X

I tried to discuss it earlier in this thread
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2009-November/057630.html
but got no reply / not enough interest.

Maybe I will try to maintain my private PHP 5.2 version with extensions
we are using for our clients.
