About

This is a home for packaging various software into Debian and Ubuntu. Most notable package under DEB.SURY.ORG is the PHP packaging.

PHP LTS by Freexian

Commercial long-term support for PHP. PHP LTS is a service prepared together with Freexian: Debian packages for multiple PHP releases on multiple Debian and Ubuntu releases, with dependable security support over an extended period of time. If you use the PHP packages to run business, this is the way to get support and to support this project.

PHP LTS by Freexian

Who am I?

I am a Debian Developer since year 2000, and I have been packaging PHP for Debian since PHP 5. That means the official packages in Debian and Ubuntu are either my work or they are based on my work. The PHP packages in my Debian DPA matches the official packages in Debian. Basically I am saying that you can’t get any closer than that.

Acknowledgements

This service would not exist without the support from companies that trust us and support the project directly or via PHP LTS by Freexian. Many thanks to them!

News

I publish the most important changes in the packaging and interesting news in dedicated Mastodon feed at deb@sury.org.

Bug Reporting

DEB.SURY.ORG has now public lightweight issue tracker at CodeBerg. Please report any bugs or feature requests for the repositories there, since my INBOX is a not very reliable way how to keep track on all issue since it has the tendency to grow number of unread messages to numbers over thousand…

Also please excuse me if I don’t respond to your email, my INBOX is really a mess and if you are not lucky, you might get stuck with other unread emails. So pretty please use new issue tracker.

Documentation

The available documentation related to the packages and PPAs is hosted in the Wiki. Everybody can contribute, so if you want to write more documentations on the PHP packages, you are certainly welcome to do so.

Support

The PHP packaging is time consuming and I do this mostly in my free time. Please consider buying commercial support from Freexian if you use PHP packages to run business or donating if you find the PHP packages useful for your projects.

It also warms a heart to know that this project is useful.
