Hi!

Did I miss anything or is it intentional to not allow
bug
reports for php 5.3.x?

The version dropdown on
https://bugs.php.net/report.php
only shows trunk, svn and php 5.4 stuff
(and a 'upgrade first'
suggestion if lower).

greetings,

Nico

the problem is that nobody cares about this dropdown as also
on the pecl-bugtracker and even if  5.3.x would be present
it takes ages if it is in the dropdown

why are this not a input-field if nobody cares about maintaining
the dropdwons properly?

It was recently changed to automatically update from the version info
on php.net.
That code change seems broken now, and you should file a bug report
about it - or at least tell the proper list that maintains these sort
of things (php-webmaster@lists.php.net) as this has nothing to do with
PHP internals :]

hi.

I changed the behavior of that dropdown recently, it fetch the
versions from http://qa.php.net/api.php?type=qa-releases&format=json&only=dev_versions
and http://www.php.net/releases/index.php?serialize=1&max=20&version=5
it seems that Ilia broke the qa api with this change:
http://svn.php.net/viewvc/web/qa/trunk/include/release-qa.php?r1=314792&r2=315141&pathrev=315141

currently we don't have active release for the 5.3 branch there, so
the script assumes that the development of the 5.3 branch has ended.

We have an active (stable) release and snapshots, but no QA release,
which is valid. Can you make sure this works an proper instructions are
in php-src/README.RELEASE_PROCESS?

Thanks

the problem is, that none of the apis provides information about the
which are the active/supported branches, so I assumed in my script
that there will be always an active qa version for the supported
branches.
it seems that this isn't true, but then I can't see a way to fetch
this kind of info without creating a new config for this.
if somebody can come up with a better idea than enabling the 5.3.8 for
qa now, then I would be happy to implement this.

btw: I don't have karma for php-src, so I can't upgrade the
README.RELEASE_PROCESS, but it seems that the "Rolling a stable
release" section completely misses the part about updating
web/php-bugs/trunk/include/php_versions.php

I've fixed and pushed it to bugsweb for now with
http://svn.php.net/viewvc?view=revision&revision=315166 until we come
up with a proper solution.
