Howto: PHP 7.2 & 7.3 on Debian stretch/9 - using phpswitcher 4.0.3

I'm already too new. Should I just downgrade?

Downgrading would result in removal of a whole bunch of packages:

Don't do that. Just wait a bit...

Hey Nuxwin,

I'd really prefer to wait for an official upgrade path. I read your recent posts on Twitter regarding PHP7.x tests are now passing. Really appreciate your hard work on this.

Could you give a rough schedule for the release maybe? I'm currently facing resellers who will leave if they woun't get access to PHP 7.3 soon.

I know, it's hard to tell, but should I expect it more like two weeks or two months until the next release?

Best regards,

Sven.

I'm a week late in fact due to personal reasons... The new version should have been released last sunday... The new version should be released tomorrow.

Wow, that's very good news, I'll definitely wait!

Thanks a lot for your work!

Hi Nuxwin,

any updates regarding the phpswitcher update? We need support for php 7.2/7.3 around end of october. Do you think this will be ready for Q4 2019?

We're looking forward to the next updates and thank you for your work with i-mscp.

Kind regards,

freedom
