PHP and Kernel Updates

PHP and Kernel Updates

By Oleg / April 1, 2016

Following updates now available in Funtoo Linux.

  • PHP-5.6 package mask now dropped, which makes newer PHP available
  • PHP_TARGETS are set to 5.6 by default
  • Update to debian-sources-4.4.6.

PHP updates

A notice for PHP_TARGETS. Default value set in profile now is PHP_TARGETS="php5-6". This automatically make all php dependent packages compiled against php-5.6. If this is not desired behavior or your production boxes, for example, restricted to older PHP releases, following change necessary in /etc/portage/make.conf.

   /etc/portage/make.conf - An example make.conf file
MAKEOPTS="-j4"
PHP_TARGETS="php5-5"

In this example file, we set default targets to php-5.5. Change values according to your needs.

Kernel update

debian-sources [1] now updated to version 4.4.6. This update brings better support for newer hardware, like Intel Skylake/Broadwell CPU, as well as newer WiFi chips. Other hardware may also benefit from this update. It is necessary to perform bootloader changes after kernel update, via: boot-update [2]
