Hi

Do you base the minimum PHP version on upstream or what is supported by LTS versions of common distros? I see on the download page that you plan to support 4.0.10.x until Jan 1, 2017. Do you have plans to support a version of phpMyAdmin throughout the lifetime of those distros? Is it instead up to each distro to provide a package with backported fixes?
Example distros:
- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (EOL April 2017)
- CentOS 6.x (EOL November 2020)
I don't think we should do it and I also don't see need for that. Both include PHP 5.3 which is supported by current 4.4.x releases. The 4.0.x is supported for PHP 5.2, what I think should be really dead by 2017.
We will have to discus EOL for 4.4, which will be quite long as that's last version supporting PHP 5.3 and 5.4.
Robert Scheck was kind enough to reply to my inquiry about LTS, so:
- RHEL/CentOS 5 will support PHP 5.1 (and optionally 5.3) as well as MySQL 5.0 until 2017-03-31
- RHEL/CentOS 6 will support PHP 5.3 and MySQL 5.1 until 2020-11-30
- RHEL/CentOS 7 will support PHP 5.4 and MariaDB 5.5 until 2024-06-30
BTW: Ubuntu did not care to update even the 3.4.10.1 version they have shipped with 12.04 LTS, so I really don't see it much security supported...
