[pkg-php-pear] Bug#806903: src:symfony: Please provide directions on developing with Symfony using Debian packages

[Olivier Berger]

Package: src:symfony
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Given that Symfony is packaged for Debian, I'd expect to find some way to get a Symfony development environment based on Debian packages, without having to download the whole internet with composer.

Could you please provide some directions on how the packages of Symfony can be used for Symfony app development ?

I cannot even seem to find any "top-level" package that'd be a candidate for giving me a README.Debian, to get me started.

Many thanks in advance.

Best regards,
