It's been officially removed from php.net, here's the announcement: PHP 5.2.7 has been removed from distribution [07-Dec-2008]
Due to a security bug found in the PHP 5.2.7 release, it has been removed from distribution. The bug affects configurations where magic_quotes_gpc is enabled, because it remains off even when set to on. In the meantime, use PHP 5.2.6 until PHP 5.2.8 is later released. Not sure what to do with this request. Thanks. -- Please upgrade php5 to new upstream version 5.2.7 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/305393 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
