| Summary | 0001864: Add native support for Software Collections (SCL) in ClearOS 7.x, for better security & innovation | ||||||||
| Description | PNAELV distros have a relatively slow release cycle. This is great for certain types of use cases, like a firewall. However, for web apps like Tiki, Joomla! and WordPress, staying on older versions of PHP is slowing down innovation. This was a problem in ClearOS 5.x, is a problem in ClearOS 6.x, and by the time ClearOS 7.x comes out, the included PHP version will soon be End of Life (EoL) In ClearOS 6.x, the included PHP version is 5.3.3 from mid-2010 http://php.net/archive/2010.php#id2010-07-22-2 [^] Even if PHP was kept up to date in minor updates: About PHP 5.3.27 "This will be the last regular release of the PHP 5.3 series. " http://php.net/archive/2013.php#id2013-07-11-1 [^] PHP has a yearly release cycle, so this always going to be a challenge: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/releaseprocess [^] The good news is that there is now a future-proof solution: Software Collections. It permits to run more recent versions, while keeping the base system. And it's not just PHP, but also Ruby, Python, Perl, Node.js, etc. For PHP, it would be great to be able to specify which version per directory. Thanks!

For the record, here is a way to have PHP 5.5 until we have SCLs: http://www.clearfoundation.com/docs/howtos/upgrading_to_php_5.5.x [^] |

For anyone watching: this is now looking more like a ClearOS 7 thing. Sorry for the wait, but it's going to be a fantastic, future-proof and flexible solution. |
