Thanks for the hint, but according to http://gpo.zugaina.org/Overlays/bgo-overlay/dev-db/firebird there's just version 4.0 available; as I already installed version 5.0 from https://www.firebirdsql.org/en/firebird-5-0#linux-x64 I don't want to downgrade. I guess I could put some kind of "exceptions" into /etc/revdep-rebuild, but I don't know what to configure in LD_LIBRARY_MASK and/or SEARCH_DIRS_MASK as revdep-rebuild doesn't show any files and/or directories - it just reinstalls PHP... -Matt
