[pkg-php-pear] Bug#976811: Bug#976811: transition: php8.1

[Paul Gevers]

Hi,

>> Please enlighten me on the details of php packaging that I'm missing and that we should be aware of for this (and future) transition(s).

Is it true that because the api is already provided in testing that we 
now have some packages working with (and pulling in) php7.4 and some 
with php8.1 by default (in testing). Is that supposed to work 
gracefully? Or is this transition (in unstable) now also breaking 
testing in ways we don't want? Hmm, thinking a bit about this, I guess 
the php configuration needs to be enabled in mods-enabled, so package 
upgrades break already without admin intervention, right? And this has 
been that way for upgrades between stable releases as well? So, am I 
overly worried or is this all "by design"?

Paul
