[pkg-php-pear] Bug#977373: php-fxsl: Not compatible with php8.0 as is

[David Prévot]

Package: php-fxsl
Version: 1.1.1-4
Severity: important
Tags: upstream patch pending
Control: block 976811 by -1

php-fxsl extends the XSLTProcessor::transformToDoc function, but its
signature seems to have changed in PHP 8.0. I’ve prepared a simple
patch, but applying it would make the package incompatible with the
current PHP 7.4.

https://salsa.debian.org/php-team/pear/php-fxsl/-/commit/a266090cb469e10927d67e244f93381e7235e645

It might be possible to declare the function conditionally on the PHP
version, help with that would be welcome (upstream repository is
archived, so I wouldn’t wait for them). Alternatively, we’ll need to
upload the proposed fix in sync (after) the php8.0 transition (in that
case, the “block by” might be excessive or declared the wrong way
around).

Regards

David
