Yes, but adding information about how to configure PHP for this extensions does not make sense IMHO. Once they are in PECL there are two possibilities: 1.) popular extension -> bundled with PHP and adding infos about configure options make sense. 2.) not so popular or whatever else -> not bundled with PHP. compile/configure Options are different, so it makes no sense to me to add/move this info to the docs. [...] > Moved extensions are mentioned in NEWS: > http://www.php.net/php4news Thanks I got it:-) Removed in 4.3 ext/aspell ext/ccvs ext/cybercash ext/icap sapi/fhttpd ICAP docs are deleted (at least excluded from the build process) For aspell I suggest the same solution as for ICAP: 1.) exlude them from the build process 2.) make sure php.net/aspell points to php.net/pspell 3.) put a note in pspell like that in php.net/mcal For CCVS the same as above with a pointer to MCVE As far as i know there is no replacement for Cybercash. I suggest to 1.) exclude the functions from the build process 2.) modify reference.xml containing a short note about the removal About the moved extensions: moved to PECL in 4.3 ext/vpopmail ext/cybermut moved to PECL in 4.2.0 ext/satellite ext/mailparse As long as the docs not moved we should at least provide the users some information about: 1.) the move 2.) where to get the code for the extensions Ok, satellite docs are moved. Regards Friedhelm P.S.: Maybe we can find a general solution how to handle removed and moved extensions. You made a suggestion later in the thread, it should be in the TODO.
