Remi Collet: PHP 8.3 as Software Collection
Version alpha1 is planned to be released this week. It's still in development and will enter soon in the stabilization phase for the developers, and the test phase for the users.
RPM of this upcoming version of PHP 8.3, are available in remi repository for Fedora 37, 38 and Enterprise Linux 7, 8, 9 (RHEL, CentOS, Alma, Rocky...) in a fresh new Software Collection (php83) allowing its installation beside the system version.
As I (still) strongly believe in SCL potential to provide a simple way to allow installation of various versions simultaneously, and as I think it is useful to offer this feature to allow developers to test their applications, to allow sysadmin to prepare a migration or simply to use this version for some specific application, I decide to create this new SCL.
I also plan to propose this new version as a Fedora 40 change (as F39 should be released a few weeks before PHP 8.3.0).
