Has RedHat ever shipped PHP 5.2?
I thought, I had only seen 5.1 and then 5.3 - but I admit I don't use RedHat or CentOS for PHP if I can avoid it.
The PHP project has stopped supporting PHP 5.2 some time ago and it's on "life support" by
the backports-project: http://code.google.com/p/php52-backports/
E.g. it will drop out of FreeBSD's ports-tree sometime spring 2013. Some Debian release may keep it alive longer.
Does you CMS absolutely need PHP 5.2 or does it also work with PHP 5.3?
