I suspect an error in specific versions.xml Bzip2 extension file [1] All Bzip2 functions tell that they came with PHP 4.3.3 PECL [2] tell that version 1.0 was released on 2003-05-21 PHP4 ChangeLog [3], tell that : - version 4.3.2 was released on 2003-05-29 - version 4.3.3 was released on 2003-08-25 Is it possible that the right version is not 4.3.3 ? At least we should have 4.3.2 More strange, if you read the PHP4 changelog, you will find : "Fixed several bzip2 issues" on PHP 4.2.3 (2002-09-06)
The history of this extension is rather confusing when considering its broken CVS history. However, an old manual says 4.0.4 so I reckon that's what it should be. Some Old CVS history: - http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/php4.fubar/ext/bz2/ New CVS history: - http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/php-src/ext/bz2/ So, the "new" CVS history indicates 4.3.3 and functable generated off of that. It appears to have no new functions, so, 4.0.4 it is. Also, the PECL stuff appears bogus... it's not really in PECL. Only an old symlink to php-src. Regards, Philip
