Bug handlers believe this bug should not affect users", but they noted "it probably broke all PHP extensions, since it stops honoring packagingroot after calling PEAR_Registry->setConfig()". Revision History: September 26 2019: Updated mail subject September 25 2019: Initial Release - --------------------------BEGIN INCLUDED TEXT-------------------- Package : php5 Version : 5.6.40+dfsg-0+deb8u6 Debian Bug : 805222 An update has been made to php5, a server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language. Specficially, as reported in #805222, the ability to build extensions in certain older versions of PHP within Debian has been hindered by an upstream change which first appeared in PHP 5.6.15. This update applies a fix which restores the ability to build PHP extensions for Debian 8 "jessie" so that a forthcoming PECL extension update can be built and released. For Debian 8 "Jessie", this problem has been fixed in version 5.6.40+dfsg-0+deb8u6. We recommend that you upgrade your php5 packages.
