Hi,
I recently noticed that on http://www.php.net/downloads.php,
"Redhat/CentOS Binaries" link to a third party repository [1].
First, this could be confused for users, as this is not a Red Hat or
CentOS official repository.
Why PHP project (seems to) recommend the use of a third party repository
among others ?
Yes, I'm probably offended because I also maintain a third repository
[2], trying to be as close of upstream as possible, as complete as
possible (ex: php 5.3.17 / 5.4.7 [3] or latest msgpack extension [4]
already there, with more than 300 php-* packages)
It seems (at least to me) that this should be clarified.
Best regards,
Remi.
