Office Upgrade to PHP

Post by kaplan.dani » 2014/05/22 11:53:04

Hi,
Is there any plans to upgrade the version of officially supported PHP on Centos 6.5 ?

I know I can upgrade it through 3rd party repositories, but I prefer to do so once it was tested and officially included by the centos team.

If I can help in some way to test this integration, I'll love to help

Dani

CentOS does not plan the upgrades.
Sources come from RHEL and the major version of PHP is unlikely to change.

The CentOS php 5.3.3 is fully patched against all known security vulnerabilities (as long as you've yum updated recently).
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

Red Hat has a separate Software Collections (RHSCL) that includes ... something.

"Separate" as in "nothing to do with RHEL" (nor CentOS). While you would hunt third-party
yum repositories in order to find it, it is still from RH, just like RHEL.
