Description:
------------
The manual [1] states that phar can be compiled against 5.2.0.

I did not get it managed because of missing include/ext/spl/ directory.

Please refer to the debian bug reported I created earlier:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=494754

Maybe it's only a documentation bug :)

Thanks!

Hi,

I really don't think we should be supporting anything pre-5.2.1 at this point anyway, given that 5.2.0 is the last PHP version incapable of supporting PHP 6 code. Thanks to that, the 'run anywhere' code in the default Phar won't run under 5.2.0 but will run under 5.2.1. So as far as that goes, this is indeed a documentation bug.

Are you in a position to confirm whether there is a problem compiling Phar against PHP 5.2.1?

Thanks!

Hi,

I'm sorry I only tested it with 5.2.0 as I initially thought it's a debian bug. I would guess it works since the version in which include/ext/spl has been added.

To be frank, I would call omitting ext/spl from a PHP distribution a bug, but it's not impossible to do that with 5.2.0. SPL has been a core extension since before PHP 5.0.0.

Anyway - I'm closing this bug report now, since it doesn't appear to have anything to do with Phar at all!
