PHP 5.5.38 for Wheezy (End of Life)

On July 21st 2016, the PHP group released PHP 5.5.38.

This is a security release that fixes some security related bugs. All PHP 5.5 users are encouraged to upgrade to this version.
(…)
Note that according to our release schedule, PHP 5.5.38 is the last release of the PHP 5.5 branch. There may be additional release if we discover important security issues that warrant it, otherwise this release will be the final one in the PHP 5.5 branch. If your PHP installation is based on PHP 5.5, it may be a good time to start making the plans for the upgrade to PHP 5.6 or PHP 7.0.

PHP 5.5.38 packages are now available on Dotdeb for Debian 7 “Wheezy”, on both amd64 and i386 architectures.

The following modules have been packaged too :

  • apcu 4.0.7
  • gearman 0.8.3
