Keep dev-lang/php:7.4 in the overlay after masking and removing from official tree #128

Closed lourdas closed 1 year ago

lourdas commented 1 year ago

For those of us that still require php:7.4, is it possible to have a copy in the overlay (ideally a copy for apcu, xdebug, imagick that still respect PHP_TARGET_7.4), before the final removal from the official tree?

Thank you for whatever the answer might be!

Yes, of course.

Packages added. Let me know if you need other extensions.

Thank you very much!

Question. It seems that pecl-apcu, pecl-imagick and xdebug do not build their extensions for PHP 7.4.

emerge -vp dev-php/pecl-apcu

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies                     ... done!
Dependency resolution took 1.32 s.

[ebuild   R    ] dev-php/pecl-apcu-5.1.22:7::stefantalpalaru  USE="lock-pthreadrw mmap -lock-pthreadmutex -lock-semaphore -lock-spinlock" PHP_TARGETS="php8-0 php8-1 (-php7-4) -php8-2" 0 KiB

Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 KiB

How do I make them build the extension for 7.4?

You need to put "php7-4" in PHP_TARGETS in your "make.conf", then you need to add "-php_targets_php7-4" to "/etc/portage/profile/use.mask".

It's not possible for me to unmask this USE flag at the overlay level, because Portage forgot to implement that.
