We would like to install 5.1.2 to resolve a security problem however we have discovered that doing so breaks the php_zip.dll facilities. Here's a link to the bug report ... http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=6569 Can you help us determine ... 1. Is the bug in the 5.1.2 dist or in php_zip.dll? 2. Is there a known active plan to resolve this issue and what timetable can we expect? 3. Who the appropriate party is to address with this issue? Thank you Kip // ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------- hey, this is a problem with the win32 distribution, not the zip extension itself. i'm not the contact person for this/not involved enough with php dev anymore to refer you to someone who could answer your question. i suggest you contact internals@lists.php.net with your question. -sterling On 2/16/06, Kip Krueger <kip@bigpikture.com> wrote:

The bug is in the way the snaps are built. The CVS is used instead of the released package. I'm working in the cvs for the next major release (see below), in HEAD, and HEAD is used for 5.1 dll builds.

Within a month a complete new version will be released as alpha. This new version introduces write support and a OO interface,. PHP 5.1+ only.

Actually me, I maintain now this package but still not listed in the pecl maintainers. Can you please send me the necessary information about your security problem? I can release the old version with it shortly. --Pierre
