emerge failed because the file php-patchset-5.2.17-r0.tar.bz2 is not found on any server!

perhaps somebody has a link for a download so i can put the file in the portage distfiles folder.

i need this for installing php 5.2.17

That PHP is very old. Given the general history of security problems in the PHP project, I would be surprised if there are no known vulnerabilities in a version that old. Could you explain why you need to use an old PHP instead of one of the supported versions?

The Problem is that dependencies in a very large project not even work with php 5.3 because of structural changes in the language syntax. So I need for some month the old version.

I uploaded it for you here:
http://compono.cz/php-patchset-5.2.17-r0.tar.bz2
For me, this is also very disturbing. This is the last version that runs on the PHP-GTK, which runs some of our internal applications.
I see no reason why not to keep it in portage.

It is fairly common to drop old versions of a package when they are not maintained upstream, especially if there are known security issues in the old version. Dropping the old version encourages users to upgrade to a fixed release. According to the php.net website, PHP 5.2.x is no longer supported, so I think that it is not receiving security fixes.

Sorry to resurrect an older thread, but we are trying to recover an old application and the current version of php 5.3 does not work for us, a deprecated function...

After some reading, I believe I need the patchset for 5.3.2..

php-patchset-5.3.2-r0.tar.bz2

I have the ebuild file for 5.3.2 and I think I'm only missing the patchset. Any help would be greatly appreciated
