Arch Linux User Repository

Created binary repository on build.opensuse.org

https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:el:archphp

For Arch Linux, edit /etc/pacman.conf and add the following (note that the order of repositories in pacman.conf is important, since pacman always downloads the first found package):

[home_el_archphp_Arch]
Server = https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/el:/archphp/Arch/$arch

Then run the following as root

key=$(curl -fsSL https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:el:archphp/Arch/$(uname -m)/home_el_archphp_Arch.key)
fingerprint=$(gpg --quiet --with-colons --import-options show-only --import --fingerprint <<< "${key}" | awk -F: '$1 == "fpr" { print $10 }')
pacman-key --init
pacman-key --add - <<< "${key}"
pacman-key --lsign-key "${fingerprint}"

Refresh packages database

pacman -Syy

Now search for php packages you need:

pacman -Ss php71

Install with pacman -S packages you need or all PHP 7.1 packages with:

sudo pacman -S $(pacman -Ssq | grep '^php71')

Read Carefully! Breaking changes in compare with native PHP package

1. Console version /usr/bin/php71 is installed with php71-cli subpackage, php71 doesn't include it anymore!!!

2. PEAR and PECL are available as php71-pear and php71-pecl subpackages

3. All shared modules are respresented as stand-alone subpackages and are not included with php71 package anymore.

4. No more extensions in php.ini itself!

Separate INI files for each extension are placed in /etc/php71/conf.d

They are loaded in correct order according to priority

Fixed build against dblib. Added c-client to aur. Forced openssl1.1

Looks like a dependency has been removed from repos?

error: could not find all required packages:
    c-client (wanted by: php71-cli)

Now builds fine against new openssl ;)

as php70: does no longer build since update today

Was also struggling with:

FAILED TEST SUMMARY
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Test exception doesn't cause RSHUTDOWN bypass, variation 0 [Zend/tests/exception_011.phpt]
Test exception doesn't cause RSHUTDOWN bypass, variation 1 [Zend/tests/exception_012.phpt]
=====================================================================

Worked around it with adding following lines to the PKGBUILD file,
right under the rm -f Zend/tests/bug79919.phpt line:

    rm -f Zend/tests/bug74093.phpt
    rm -f Zend/tests/exception_011.phpt
    rm -f Zend/tests/exception_012.phpt
    rm -f Zend/tests/unset_cv06.phpt

We are staying on your side - the side of freedom and independence for all peoples of the world and hope that war will end immediately. Please take care in the knowledge "you are not alone".

@dotted thanks for findings. Will proceed with changes after war finishes here, in my country - Ukraine

Last fix did nothing at all, you can/should revert the environment variable changes you made. The issue is that when generating the tmp-php.ini file for test execution it will read the default php.ini location which is /etc/php71/php.ini and if that has been changed to recommended production values the variables_order directive will be set to "GPCS" which means the $_ENV will be empty but run-tests.php uses this to get the environment variables. The fix here is to patch the Makefile and make sure variables_order has a proper value see below patch file:

--- Makefile    2022-02-21 01:26:59.124076674 +0100

Unfortunately this does nothing on my end to fix the failing tests. Currently I am stuck on why executing make test TESTS="tests/basic/bug20539.phpt" causes the test to fail, but if you execute the generated shell script ./tests/basic/bug20539.sh the output matches what is expected, and as I mentioned in my previous comment REPORT_EXIT_STATUS=1 NO_INTERACTION=1 SKIP_ONLINE_TESTS=1 SKIP_SLOW_TESTS=1 ../build-cli/sapi/cli/php -n run-tests.php -n -P {tests,Zend} works fine but make test does not.

@dotted looks you're right, will change PKGBUILD soon. Thanks for finding

If REPORT_EXIT_STATUS=1 NO_INTERACTION=1 SKIP_ONLINE_TESTS=1 SKIP_SLOW_TESTS=1 ../build-cli/sapi/cli/php -n run-tests.php -n -P {tests,Zend} is run in /php71/src/php-7.1.33 the test succeeds with the following result:

I wonder if the issue is the environment variables such as SKIP_SLOW_TESTS aren't actually set when tests are executing?
