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 php56

Install with pacman -S packages you need or all PHP 5.6 packages with:

sudo pacman -S $(pacman -Ssq | grep '^php56')

Read Carefully! Breaking changes in compare with native PHP package

Console version /usr/bin/php56 is installed with php56-cli subpackage, php56 doesn't include it anymore!!!

PEAR and PECL are available as php56-pear and php56-pecl subpackages

All shared modules are respresented as stand-alone subpackages and are not included with php56 package anymore.

No more extensions in php.ini itself!

Separate INI files for each extension are placed in /etc/php56/conf.d

They are loaded in correct order according to priority

PHP 5.6 will stop getting security updates in January 2019. Consider upgrading to PHP 7 now

PLEASE READ : For those who are getting "unknown public key" errors, this is NOT caused by this package. It means GPG is not configured to fetch public keys automatically (which is normal by default)

Please read the instructions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkg#Signature_checking

The easiest way to overcome this is to manually import the keys from a keyserver :

$ gpg --keyserver hkp://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys C2BF0BC433CFC8B3 FE857D9A90D90EC1

foxxx and I have been working together and this package can now be installed along PHP 7 from the official repos. Everything has been moved into separate directories : Config : /etc/php56 Extensions : /usr/lib/php56/modules Binaries : /usr/bin/php56, /usr/bin/php56-cgi, /usr/bin/phar56, etc. If you were previously using this as a replacement for php7, you'll have to adjust the new configuration files in /etc/php56/ to reflect the current ones in /etc/php/. Apache module (provided by php56-apache) also has a specific configuration and CAN NOT cohabit with php7_module. Use php-fpm, fcgi or cgi if you need both versions. The apache module is installed as libphp56.so, so you should use the following lines your httpd.conf : # Load php 5.6 module LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp56.so # Use it for .php extensions Include conf/extra/php56_module.conf Please let me know if you encounter any problem or have a suggestion.

@lonercoder Just rebuild php56, it will be linked with the correct libreadline.

nikola3244 commented on 2017-02-06 21:15 (UTC)

I'm getting an error while executing `php56`: php56: error while loading shared libraries: libreadline.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I have tried to install readline 6, but couldn't because I have readline 7 already installed. So, my solution was to create a symlink from libreadline.so.7 But, is that the best solution?

@jilen: Can't reproduce. Try reinstalling gd: pacman -S gd

@hxss: those are in php56-apache Please note, that php56 is a package group, which includes the base package with the same name. If you need certain features, e.g. FPM, mcrypt, imap, ... you have to install the corresponding php56-<feature> package. When you have built the whole php56 group you'll see what is available. (They are listed on this aur page, too.)

hxss commented on 2017-01-23 17:57 (UTC)

Just installed 5.6.30-1. There are no modules/libphp56.so and conf/extra/php56_module.conf in /etc/httpd/

jilen commented on 2017-01-23 01:51 (UTC)

configure: error: Unable to find libgd.(a|so) >= 2.1.0 anywhere under /usr ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Cannot build 5.6.30 version
