It was/is there, but in the bleeding repo waiting for confirmation. I
guess that was a misunderstanding. Since then quite a lot of other
people have been testing it and php can move on to more stable
regions.

Thanks, indeed it isn't enough to find the problems you were
seeing. Some of the packages you mention are not even at ATrpms
(dvdrecord?), so you may be seeing issues that were fedora proper and
attributed them to ATrpms. If you'll find time please try rectivating
ATrpms and simulate an upgrade. If you find something was going to
break please add it to your report.

Just present her the latest Windows virus incident from the newspaper
to make her love it ;)
