I notice some extensions (built against alpha1) crash against alpha2 Ex: (php -v) PHP Warning: Method Yar_Client::__call() cannot take arguments by reference in Unknown on line 0 PHP Fatal error: Declaration of Yaf_Config_Ini::offsetSet() must be compatible with ArrayAccess::offsetSet( $offset, $value) in Unknown on line 0 Or https://github.com/hprose/hprose-pecl/pull/10/files For me, the safe way was to rebuild "all" extensions against alpha2. Remi. P.S. of course I hope, with the feature freeze this will not happen again ;) (a mass-rebuild is always a quite long task) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlWM81QACgkQYUppBSnxahiAgACgkro+KN3oeab83k9x9QcMwqci SZcAoMX4PIdl3RFAzqOYINl6rCO7QfZN =S+yX -----END PGP SIGNATURE --- ## #86903 — Jan Ehrhardt — 2015-06-26T10:23:12+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/86864#86903 · In reply to: #86896 Remi Collet in php.internals (Fri, 26 Jun 2015 08:38:12 +0200): >For me, the safe way was to rebuild "all" extensions against alpha2.
