[Bug 1048121] Re: mythweb/php-mythtv incompatibility with PHP 5.4.x

 

I agree with Drumz here. I appreciate marking this as won't fix, but it
would be even better to fix it.

I applied the patch to my machine. Of course, I had to search around a
bit to find out why there was a failure.

I assume that the mythtv team expect that this release is not used with
the newer PHP. Since Ubuntu uses the newer PHP, then patching it is
reasonable.
