Current status

Version 8.3.0 GA is planed for November 23th.

Detailed Description

Update the PHP stack in Fedora to latest version 8.3.x.

Fedora has a 6 months cycle, PHP a 1 year cycle, our common practice for some years:

  • 2 Fedora cycles for each PHP minor release (exceptions below)
  • 3 Fedora cycles for latest minor (e.g. 5.6 or 7.4) to give more time before next major
  • 1 Fedora cycle for first major (e.g. 7.0 or 8.0)

Fedora 37 has PHP 8.1, Fedora 38 and 39 have PHP 8.2.
