Oh oops, wasn't aware of that transition list, should probably
subscribe to pkg-php-pear at a-l.d.n :-)  (I don't have the bandwidth to
keep track of php-* and will focus on the Roundcube-related ones, but
being subscribed to that list doesn't hurt I guess.)

Aha good to know, there was a warning “assertInternalType() is
deprecated and will be removed in PHPUnit 9” in the build log but
perhaps the function will stay around for another release cycle then.
Doesn't hurt anyway :-)

FWIW as far as php-net-ldap2 is concerned, the package is dead upstream
(there are no severe bugs open but no development either).  Right now
it's probably only needed for php-net-ldap3, but I expect they'll either
merge at some point, or PEAR:Net_LDAP3 will become standalone.  It's
kinda clear looking at the upstream activity, but I guess it would be
best to document that somewhere in the header of the Debian patch no?

Cheers,
