Not being a PHP developer, I was under the impression that many/most of these packages were interpreted scripts which probably would work fine under php53 vs. the php installed by default.
I have been wondering from afar about this thread and the discussions over in the EPEL list, if someone could create a meta rpm that required php53 and provided php (and similar for php-mysql & php-snmp) and have the system continue to work. This is of course under the assumptions of:
a. the packages are interpreted scripts
b. the syntax has only added, and not changed or removed functionality since the stock php.
Is this a not_bright idea in the php package world?
