Hi, I'm currently cleaning up the php-eaccelerator package. It has been in Fedora since the very beginning and I'm pretty sure it never went through any review (straight from freshrpms). The major change I have to do is "fix" the version : "5.2.3_0.9.5.1" has to become plain "0.9.5.1" ...so I'll have to introduce and epoch :-( The problem is historical, as the module had to track the main php package's version quite closely, back when the zend_abi version wasn't provided by the php package, and this ugly trick was an easy way for end users to know if the package was the correct one. Anyway, I'll be doing that unless someone objects ;-) The next issue is that the cache files created by the module are stored in /var/cache/php-eaccelerator/ and the ownership of that directory is hardcoded to apache:apache in the package. This is a problem when using php with another web server, lighttpd for instance (which I do a lot). It's even worse when using multiple web servers on the same machine... I'd like the find a clean solution for this. The only one I can think of is to have php-eaccelerator create its own group in which it'll put apache, lighttpd and eventually others, and have the cache directory owned by "root:eacceler" (it's better with only 8 chars, right?) and set g+S. This way, all web servers should be able to write and read cache files. I was also thinking of adding the web server users to the group by using triggers in the php-eaccelerator package. Does this seem sane to do?
