Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: php5

When trying to run php programs on hardy server that use the sybase_*
php functions, I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function sybase_connect()

The sybase_* functions should be installed via the php5-sybase package,
but instead only the mssql_* functions are installed. I realize that
they are merely aliases to one another, but according to the php5
documentation, the mssql functions are aliases to the sybase ones. So if
one set needs to go away, it would make more sense to get rid of the
mssql rather than the sybase functions, especially considering the name
of the package.

The error is seen when using php5 from the cli or through apache2.

My package version: php5-sybase 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.1

Ubuntu Version: Ubuntu 8.04
