Currently epel7 has 1.2.12. We could update to 1.2.13, which fixes 2 of
the CVE's... but that leaves 8 more. I don't really think they are going
to be doing any more 1.2.x releases now that 1.5 is almost out.
Sorry I wasn't being exact there, it's not php itself, it's various php
related things. Like php-pear version 1.10.1 is needed and rhel7 has
1.9.4 and so on.
If you would like to try and get 1.4.x working on epel7 that would be
great! Of course the 1.2 -> 1.4 jump would be pretty major for
users, but such things happen.
I am wondering if we need a different way to announce reasons for this:[ ] I no longer use RHEL-7 so can not test[ ] I found that there are too many package updates needed that I do not have time for.[ ] The following RHEL packages are too old for this package to be updated[ ] The upstream is dead and I can not fix...
Or maybe instead of saying it's retiring, do Fedora's Orphaning format.
Announce they are orphaning the package, and if a package is orphaned for a certain amount of time, and has all the orphan annoucements, it get's removed.
But I do like your checkbox way for announcing the reasons for retiring/orphaning.
