Public bug reported: The version of Smarty3 (3.1.21-1ubuntu1) provided in 16.04 is not compatible with PHP7. PHP7 support seems to be in Smarty3 > 3.1.28. There are multiple symptoms of this, perhaps most obvious that the templates do not compile.
See http://www.smarty.net/ for information about Smarty versions. ** Affects: smarty3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585179 Title: Smarty3 package incompatible with PHP7 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/smarty3/+bug/1585179/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
