[pkg-php-pear] Bug#827695: zendframework: Rename zend-framework in Ubuntu to allow for a package sync

Package: zendframework

Dear Maintainer,

For reference:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zend-framework/+bug/1593024

I am hoping to get rid of the Ubuntu zend-framework package and simply
sync the zendframework package from Debian. Said package is currently
blacklisted in Ubuntu due to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zendframework/+bug/580507 (and
some more details in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zend-framework/+bug/1052423).

To that end, per https://wiki.debian.org/Renaming_a_Package Method 2, I
would like to see if you would consider taking the following patch,
which allows for proper upgrading from 16.04 -> 16.10 via:

  * zend-framework -> zendframework transition (LP: #1593024):
    - Define transitionaly dummy packages for zend-framework,
      libzend-framework-php, and zend-framework-bin, which were all
      binary packages from src:zend-framework.
    - Modify the definitions of zendframework and zendframework-bin to
      Replace & Break the zend-framework versions before this one.

I did also have one question, before you apply the same patch, though:
the zend-framework package in Ubuntu used a different upstream tarball
which included the 'extras' library from ZF1. Is there any interest in
Debian packaging the same? Either way, I probably need to modify the
patch to also B/R libzend-framework-zend-php -- I asked in the Ubuntu
bug just recently on the best way forward, as semantically zendframework
does break libzend-framework-zend-php (versioned), but doesn't replace
it.

Thanks for considering the patch.
