I see no problem as far as I'd like to see ANY official php5 package. The YADA is very easy and powerful tool and I allowed me to make a packages quickly. I can use the same source for sid, sarge and woody release. The includes and macros gives me possibility to reuse the code. The patches are handled very comfortable. I don't see any bonus in converting the YADA-based packages to the other build system. I don't understand why it might be a reason for rejection. > 6.

It shouldn't break anything. At least it could be easly removed without breaking anyting ease. I need the BTS so the people could send the reports. I've got many on my mailbox. They asked, why there is no official php5. > 7.

For 6 month I see nothing. Where are the packages? The people need them. I'm not just talking. I'm working on _my_ packages and I'm doing it as well as I can do it. Do you have better packages? So please upload it into incoming. Or just allow me to make a good job on them. Don't obstruct the Debian project. -- .''`.
