Bug #77641 [Nab->ReO]: “Latest Tarball” should download selected version

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77641&edit=1 ID: 77641 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: office at vargapeter dot net -Summary: Does NOT compile +Summary: “Latest Tarball” should download selected version -Status: Not a bug +Status: Re-Opened Type: Bug -Package: stats +Package: Website problem Operating System: SLES 12.4 PHP Version: 7.2.15 -Assigned To: cmb +Assigned To: Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: > BUT, honestly, can you admit that when somebody clicks on > "Latest Tarball" on a 2.0.3 page he doesn't really expect to get > the wrong version. On further consideration, I think this link is wrong, given that the following Changelog link explicitly refers to the 2.0.3 version. "Latest Tarball" should point to <https://pecl.php.net/get/stats-2.0.3.tgz> in this case. This is a general issue for the PECL Website, not particularly to stats. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-02-20 19:40:10] office at vargapeter dot net Yes, I could have be more accurate - this was definitely my fault. Check the time when I posted it. It was late in the night - I wasn't anymore that concentrated. BUT, honestly, can you admit that when somebody clicks on "Latest Tarball" on a 2.0.3 page he doesn't really expect to get the wrong version. For me the logic was that I get delivered the latest 2.0.3 tarball. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-02-20 19:34:34] cmb@php.net > I downloaded it from http://pecl.php.net/package/stats/2.0.3 > under "Latest tarball". See <https://pecl.php.net/package/stats> which shows that 1.0.5 and 2.0.3 have been released on the same day, so yeah, while 1.0.5 is the latest release, it is not necessarily the suitable one. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-02-20 19:07:33] office at vargapeter dot net OK. I downloaded the wrong version even it was from the latest site. Now I got the correct version 2.0.3 and it works. You can close the file. Maybe you check the mentioned links/sites. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-02-20 18:58:24] office at vargapeter dot net I downloaded it from http://pecl.php.net/package/stats/2.0.3 under "Latest tarball". Please check it out. Where is the latest source? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-02-20 18:46:56] cmb@php.net From the changelog: | 2.0.0 PHP 7 Support So yes, it is expected that stats-1.0.5 doesn't compile under PHP 7. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
