This information could be very useful for me in the future, and save
some time.
Still, in case of PHP, in order to mitigate "the version compatibility
hell" and comply with requirements of various frameworks and CMS, I have
to build personal packages from sources available upstream, most of the
time.
Now I wonder, why is the owner of this repository doesn't contribute
these packages to the original Debian repositories? Not even in form of
backports.
Is the process too complicated and time consuming, so even Debian
Developer and PHP maintainer finds it easier to just host his own repo
online?
