[Bug 948156] Re: Include PHP 5.4 to Ubuntu 12.04 release

[Bart Verwilst]

Hi Clint,

You tried to talk to the Suhosin developers about this, didn't they get
back to you?

It's indeed not an easy choice. Keep 5.3.x in ( stable, well-tested, no
surprises ) but face with a dangerous forced upgrade 2 years down the
road, or throw in 5.4 now and stabilise it + add suhosin when ready,
maybe causing issues/bugs at first, but smoothing out over time.

Even though my own production-quality mindset says to stay with 5.3, I
would rather have 5.4 right away ( since most production systems won't
be running Precise in the first month without testing anyways ) and be
relaxed with the knowledge that i will have to retest a big amount of
php websites because of a update in a release that has been stable for 2
years..

Having 5.4.0 now, 5.4.1+suhosin in april/may, 5.4.2, ... etc would be
prefered as opposed to having to switch from 5.3.x(?) to 5.4.10 over-
night..

Just my 2 cents ;)
