Topic: PHP 7.2.1

I just ran `yum update` and I'm seeing this:

PHP 7.2.1 hasn't been released. Exactly what version will this install? There is nothing on php.net about this release.

/etc/yum.repos.d/remi-php72.repo looks like this:

[Sorry I can't paste my repo as `Too more links in message. Allowed 1 links. Reduce number of links and post it again.` error]

Is 7.2.1 just a remi tag to force an update? I thought that's what the -n suffix was for. If not, which repo do I need to use to instll the latest php7.2 stable (or latest in general)?

Re: PHP 7.2.1

As for all versions, 7.2.1 have been tagged on Tuesday:
https://github.com/php/php-src/releases

And is already announced
http://php.net/releases/7_2_1.php

Indeed, the build are usually available in the repository some time before annoucement (a few hours), as these builds are part of the project QA ; especially for 7.2, as I'm the Release Manager, but also for older versions (I'm part of the QA team)

So yes, this is the official 7.2.1 (once the announce is published)

Laptop:  Fedora 38 + rpmfusion + remi (SCL only)
x86_64 builder: Fedora 39 + rpmfusion + remi-test
aarch64 builder: RHEL 9 with EPEL
Hosting Server: CentOS 8 Stream with EPEL, rpmfusion, remi
