First up, apologies if this is the incorrect list to post this to, but I found it was the most relevant. Situation: Have a website which works perfectly under PHP 4.3.11 however doesn't function under 4.4.0 due to the way references changed. Upgrading the server to a beefier box as the traffics really picking up, but since my last install a cvsup for ports will upgrade PHP to 4.4.0. Not too successful doing the services I need before upgrading the ports as there is only beta versions of apache 2 etc. I'm aware that all the old source is out there and can be manually built, but more to satisfy my curiosity and to speed things up in the future, is there a correct way to port in an older version of a package or similar? (I found a few pages that said make the packages on a system with the older ports, move them accross and pkg_add. This worked OK for the base PHP, however start doing mysql-php modules and it starts you chasing the dependancies manually, also, what happens after that machine gets upped to the newest ports? TIA.
