I always get frustrated with apps requiring the latest and greatest versions of PHP, etc., before they are made available for the major distributions. Is it that the very newest feature is really indispensable and the app can't possibly make do without it, or just because the developer has the bleeding-edge version on his own box and doesn't make the effort to test his app with more mainstream versions?
totally. its the new/shiny syndrome. more than once, I've found 1-2 simple 1-line fixes enabled a newer version of a given PHP app to run on an older version of PHP.
sadly, much of the OSS community seem to think that stable enterprise distributions like RHEL and SuSE are evil incarnate, second only to Microsoft (which they inevitably spell with a $).
