The PHP dependency should be set at the minimu that works correctly for the entire package. PHP_Compat can be used by the person deploying a package to allow the package to run on a lower version (assuming the problem is a missing function, of course). If one driver in a package requires a much higher version of PHP than the rest and the maintainers want the package at the lower PHP dependency then they should break out the driver into its own package. A PHP_Compat dependency is simply not ok. > > --Joe > > On Jun 25, 2005, at 9:05 AM, Aidan Lister wrote: > > > Was it? > > > > Noone mentioned it to me!
