yes, but when I build PHP 5.5, I put that into my sources.list, so I can
build php5-json against php 5.5. php5-json has an build dep against
pkg-php-tools.

pkg-php-tools depends on php5-cli, php5-json. So php5-cli pulls the
newest version available in the archive, that's php 5.5 on my side.

php5-cli from my 5.5 packages are installed and than php5-json will be
installed, but it's not available for 5.5 because I'm trying to build
that now.
