@skp : they’re the same as long as Squeeze is the stable distribution. If you don’t want an unexpected upgrade when Wheezy is the new stable, stick to the “squeeze” line.

@Alexander M. Turek : Dotdeb is made for Debian stable. If you want to use it on Ubuntu (at your own risk), you should keep Debian Squeeze-related sources.list entries, so that dependencies are satisfied.

Thank you for your quick reply. I’m grateful for your package repository and I know that I’m doing this at my own risk. I just wanted to let you know about this issue, as you’re saying “The packages from Dotdeb should work on Ubuntu”, which was true for me until that upgrade.

Installing the libdb4.8 package from Ubuntu precise manually solved the problem for me, btw. I ran into a different one with the php5-mysql package, but I switched to your github issue tracker for that report.

I am using PHP 5.4.13 with php5-ssh2 from dotdeb (on a debian squeeze server) and wordpress uses ssh2 for updates. But every time I try to make a wordpress update this warning is logged and the update do not start:
PHP Warning: stream_set_timeout(): No support for ssh2 stream timeout. Please recompile with libssh2 >= 1.2.9 in …/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-ssh2.php on line 141

This is line 141: stream_set_timeout( $stream, FS_TIMEOUT );
The version of libssh2-1 in squeeze is: 1.2.6-1

Is it possible to use ssh2 for wordpress-updates with this dotdeb php packages on squeeze?

Thanks for your great work!

Hi

Deb
When restarting Apache, I get this:
Starting web server: apache2apache2: Syntax error on line 203 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.load: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so into server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Action ‘start’ failed.

So I looked for libphp5.so and I can’t find it on the machine so I tried to install it and got this:
apt-get install -f -y –force-yes libapache2-mod-php5

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libapache2-mod-php5 : Depends: php5-common (= 5.3.3-7+squeeze15) but 5.4.13-1~dotdeb.1 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

What should I do to fix this?
