The fourth and final release candidate of PHP 5.1.0 is now available for testing. You can download the source packages from here: http://downloads.php.net/ilia/php-5.1.0RC4.tar.bz2 4afd68f8e4fe532cea83f30bd2ff26f5 http://downloads.php.net/ilia/php-5.1.0RC4.tar.gz 679a0d12b8cb00c55d56621ea9609013 The Windows binaries will be available shortly from http://downloads.php.net/ilia/ as well. In the past two weeks a great deal of effort was put by a number of developers towards stabilization of the 5.1 branch with over 20 bug fixes made during this period alone. Based on our own tests (those wacky phpt files) and those made by QA team and related projects, 5.1 is ready for production. Pending discovery of any critical issues such as crashes, security faults and regressions I intend to release 5.1 final no later then November 10th. Since we are at the final stages of release process I'd like to ask all developers to confirm all their patches to 5.1 tree with me prior to applying them. Any non-critical patches should be reserved for subsequent releases (5.1.1, etc...). I'd also like to ask everyone to once again to test their code against 5.1, we want this release to be as stable as possible and we need your help to locate any non-yet discovered defects.

I have been unable to verify (i.e. works for me) http://bugs.php.net/34955 This is an oddity in a PEAR install apparently on Mac OS X. It works fine on gentoo linux in my tests. Can others try out the make install-pear to see if the problem exists on their platform? I am particularly interested in OS X failures. Thanks, Greg

make install-pear works fine for me on OSX 10.4.2. I suffer from this bug: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=32301 Though I don't have anything more to add to it - pear install has been unusable for me on OS X for the last couple of years because of this. You can work around it by using pear download then unzip and install manually. Marcus

Or you could use the -Z option $ pear install -Z whatever This disables gz compression. However, this has nothing to do with internals, so please send any follow-up questions to pear-general Thanks, Greg

Hello Greg, pear install looks much better now and i could finally get my rpm'w working again. Right now there is only a warning that keeps the current state from being perfect: Installing PEAR environment: /var/tmp/php5-5.1.0.dev-buildroot/usr/lib/php/pear/ --13:02:14-- http://pear.php.net/install-pear-nozlib.phar => `/usr/src/RPM/BUILD/php5/pear/install-pear-nozlib.phar' Resolving pear.php.net... 216.92.131.66 Connecting to pear.php.net[216.92.131.66]:80... connected.
