*****************************************************************
* IMPORTANT: READ BELOW ABOUT POTENTIALLY INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES *
*****************************************************************
PHP 5.4.x has been declared EOL (end of life) and is no longer receiving
upstream support. PHP 5.5.x is also no longer on active support status and
security fixes will continue only until 5 months from now. For this reason
we have provided PHP 5.6 packages as security updates. Be aware that PHP
5.6 is not 100% compatible with PHP 5.4, and some changes may be required
to existing web pages written for PHP 5.4.
For information on how to migrate from PHP 5.4, please see:
http://php.net/manual/en/migration55.php
http://php.net/manual/en/migration56.php
The final PHP 5.4 packages may be found in /pasture in case there is a need
to revert this update.
