Hello James,

Must note: There's not really a way to tell if a user defined change of
ownership of the /var/lib/php/session has occurred without scripting
outside of the PHP-group defined installation routine.

This would be better suited as a recommendation with the PHP group, as
we're simply repackaging their latest code.

Might you make that recommendation to them, sir?

Thank you, Dusty

Title:
  php53u package updates reset owner of /var/lib/php/session

Status in IUS Community Project:
  New

Bug description:
  Every time a new php53u package is installed, the owner of
  /var/lib/php/session is changed to root:root. If PHP runs as a
  different user, this path has likely been configured to a different
  owner and must not be changed. If PHP cannot write to this patch, it
  is unable to create/update sessions (with no error as to why, as far
  as I can tell).

  Can future packages be altered to only set the owner for this path if
  it is creating it?
