[pkg-php-pear] PHPUnit status for Trixie

[David Prévot]

Hi,

tl;dr: PHPUnit 12 in Trixie is still possible, help welcome to reach 
this (late) goal.

Those numbers are a bit overwhelming, yet a week later, I already took 
care of about thirty packages (almost a third of the issues).

Most fixes are actually pretty trivial: using proper attributes instead 
of already deprecated metadata in doc-comments, e.g. the following patch 
for DataProvider.

https://salsa.debian.org/php-team/pear/phpab/-/commit/406f78f0f4f14e8df6d58bae13f32748d1747fae

There are similar patches for Group, Depends, RequirePhp, etc. already 
pushed in various packages.

The fixes are easy, but there is still a lot of packages to handle, and 
some of them need a fair amount of fixes. I may not have enough free 
time to take care of everything by myself, so your help is more than 
welcome. Feel free to upload fixes, or patches via the BTS, salsa, and 
ask for help or comment on list or IRC (#debian-php)…

Cheers,

taffit
