[Pkg-cacti-maint] Bug#665280: cacti: PHP 5.4 removed function session_unregister(), breaks admin

[Stuart Swindells]

Package: cacti
Version: 0.8.7i-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
http://php.net/manual/en/function.session-unregister.php indicates that session_unregister() was deprecated in 5.3.0 and removed in 5.4.0.
Default php5 in testing/unstable is now >=5.4 so Cacti admin now is broken.
Upstream fixed in SVN/0.8.8 per http://bugs.cacti.net/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=2193
