@shivammathur thanks for the quick action! do you have a reference to commit/pr how you fixed it?

I just built the compatible libmemcached and the memcached extension again, and packaged it correctly.
The symlinks in the libmemcached files were not preserved the last time I packaged it.

@shivammathur oh, it's binary uploaded from your computer. I was really hoping everything is automated and built from CI.

[shivammathur]

It requires ubuntu precise to build. The process and scripts for building PHP 5.3 are mostly same as PHP 8 build here using php-build.

The issue with building this is figuring out the compatible library versions and sourcing them. This process was painful and I had no will to write a ci workflow which repeats this, so I just archived the build.

Will try to opensource this, it will be easier for me also to maintain👍.

I think it's easiest to make the build process with docker, and later just docker cp (or similar) from the container if need to make .tar archive. that makes it possible to develop on macOS, Linux, Windows, and also use the same Dockerfile in CI (which are typically Linux). Dockerfile can then be tracked in Git.

Seeing how Travis did it, they just create tar of $HOME/.phpenv and unpack it in CI.

Some idea, how I would do this if I had a similar task.
