Hello List,

in php7.2 i try to use ZipArchive::setEncryptionNamewith with no success
(Call to undefined method).
according to the docs of PECL zip these methods are available with
libzip >= 1.2.0

In latest source php-7.2.9/ext/zip/lib version of bundled lib is 1.1.2.
So zip extension cant play its full potential, because bundled base-lib
is outdated.
As alternative i could compile with --with-libzip=DIR instead of
--enable-zip, but this requires replacement of system-libs to newer
versions, which in most cases causes more effort, because unknown number
of systemsoftware is compiled against systems libzip.

Are there plans to raise version of supplied libzip to use its full
range if functions?

Thanks,
Hajo

No.

Plan is to only support system library (as other extensions, e.g.
openssl, intl, pcre, ...)

Bundled lib is only there because of travis, but should be dropped ASAP.

ok, thanks. so i try to update my system-libs or use the zip-binary.
Most OS have very old libzip-libs. New Ubuntu 18.04 LTS  currently
delivers 1.1.2 as well as 18.10 beta, so we will wait some years for
wide systemsupport.
