Bug#800679: PHP error: Array to string conversion in functions.inc (function: arrays_differ)

Package: gosa
Version: 2.7.4+reloaded2-3
Severity: normal

I see various messages like this on certain user actions in the log file:

The issue comes up in function array_differs():

"""
function array_differs($src, $dst)
{
   /* If the count is differing, the arrays differ */
   if (count ($src) != count ($dst)){
     return (TRUE);
   }

   return (count(array_diff($src, $dst)) != 0);
}
"""

The array_differs() function is not used often, only here:

"""
root at tjener:/usr/share/gosa# grep -ri array_differs
include/functions.inc:function array_differs($src, $dst)
include/class_plugin.inc:        if  
(!array_differs($this->attrs[$index],$this->saved_attributes[$index])){
plugins/personal/generic/class_user.inc:    $this->is_modified |=   
array_differs($this->gosaLoginRestriction, $lR);
plugins/admin/systems/class_termDNS.inc:             
if(array_differs($newEntries['RECORDS'],$oldEntries['RECORDS'])){
"""

This report is mainly a reminder for me to hunt down this issue later.
