Description:
------------
I cannot install latest timezonedb (2015.4) on PHP 5.6.7 and 5.6.8. Error says it's not compatible. Problem didnt happen with 2015.2 and PHP 5.6.7, it installed and it working just fine.

package.xml from 2015.4 seems to have a LOT of <exclude></exclude> lines, excluding basically all PHP versions. I really dont think this is correct, it really seems to be a bug. Should it be <include> tags ??

Test script:
---------------
[root@mail php56]# php -v
PHP 5.6.8 (cli) (built: Apr 28 2015 08:00:20)
Copyright (c) 1997-2015 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.6.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2015 Zend Technologies

[root@mail php56]# pecl install timezonedb
pecl/timezonedb is not compatible with PHP version 5.6.8
No valid packages found
install failed


Expected result:
----------------
i was expecting it to be installed with no problems.

The same goes for CentOS 6.6 running php-5.3.3-40.el6_6.x86_64

Looks like a load of pre-requisites have been added for some reason blocking installation. Funny when the point of the TimeZoneDB package is to update old PHP versions to use the latest Timezone Data correctly.

Pecl error:
Update of Channel "pecl.php.net" succeeded
pecl/timezonedb requires PHP (version >= 5.4.41, excluded versions: 5.5.0, 5.5.1, 5.5.2, 5.5.3, 5.5.4, 5.5.5, 5.5.6, 5.5.7, 5.5.8, 5.5.9, 5.5.10, 5.5.11, 5.5.12, 5.5.13, 5.5.14, 5.5.15, 5.5.16, 5.5.17, 5.5.18, 5.5.19, 5.5.20, 5.5.21, 5.5.22, 5.5.23, 5.5.24, 5.6.0, 5.6.1, 5.6.2, 5.6.3, 5.6.4, 5.6.5, 5.6.6, 5.6.7, 5.6.8), installed version is 5.3.3

as an easy workaround, i installed timezonedb with '--ignore-errors' option. It installed and is working just fine, as expected, on PHP 5.6.8:

pecl install --ignore-errors  timezonedb

There is most certainly something wrong. As it is now, the package
requires 5.4.41, 5.5.25, 5.6.9 or 7.x.y, none of which have been
released yet.

Derick, can you please have a look at this issue.

Using the --ignore-errors option on PHP 5.3.3 latest CentOS/Redhat patched version also installs fine.

This is still an issue with the 2015.5 release.

Looks like the 2015.6 release has resolved this. Working on both CentOS 5 and 6 fully patched
 [2015-08-21 09:09 UTC] derick@php.net 
You're right, 2015.6 is fixing this. Sorry for not closing this report!
