[bug#67902] [PATCH 00/95] PHP package chain.

[Wilko Meyer]

Hi Nicolas,

I applied v1 of the patchset and the one patch of v2 locally, which
worked pretty well. Patch 01/95 introducing abfngen got rejected, so I
manually applied the changes:

However I cannot get phpunit to be build successfully as one dependency
php-doctrine-instantiator seems to be faulty. I'm not too familiar
with guixes composer/php build system, but as far as I can see it fails
while creating the autoload_conf.php:

#+begin_src

Maybe I'll find some time to debug this further/figure out what the
compose-build-system is trying there and why exactly it fails so I can
fix it myself; but just in case this wasn't already known I wanted to
document the issue here.

Thanks for the extensive package set and as far as git log tells me for
the composer-build-system as well! :)
