Debian package update

zonuexe opened this issue · 2 comments

Debian's php-elisp package has not been updated last since 1.13.5. This is the version released in July 2014.

This version does not yet support PHP 7 syntax, so it is not suitable for modern PHP code editing.
We may need to contact the Debian package maintainer team.

Package: php-elisp
Version: 1.13.5-3

Hi,
I'm Kenta, currently the maintainer of php-mode.
https://github.com/ejmr/php-mode

I recently noticed that older versions of php-mode are hosted on Debian's APT
repository.

Both of the PHP language and php-mode have improved in recent years, so I want
to update this package to the latest version. The current php-mode is
compatible with Emacs 24.3 and probably does not break compatibility
with other packages.

Can we help you with this problem?

We have the following issue in our project:
#430

As another matter, is it possible to change this package name to a general name
like php-mode or emacs-php?

Thanks.
