Hi,

I use Nextcloud in FreeNAS jail, thanks for the package. Now the php versio=
n is
rather old, it's php56, where as Nextcloud itself is already recommending p=
hp7
due performance and other improvements. E.g. I could not install Mindmap ad=
don
due it requires php7.

Now looking at the ports, dependency is fixed to php56. Could it be updated=
 to
php7, e.g. php72? I don't know what's the versioning logic in FreeBSD, coul=
d it
be rather locked to php7 major version instead of minor version, or better =
yet
any php and I could myself select if I use 5 or 7 due my needs as a user.

Here's sniplet from the port:

"
Runtime dependencies:
    php56-pecl-smbclient>=3D0.9.0 : net/pecl-smbclient@php56
    php.h : lang/php56
"

https://www.freshports.org/www/nextcloud/

I tried installing it on php7, and noticed also the php-mysql package does =
not
exists for php7, it's nowadays named as php72-mysqli. Note the i at the end.
The end result of installing php7 packages nowadays is that it also removes
php5, and nextcloud package depends on it, so nextcloud is also removed.

So without change in port nextcloud can not be pkg installed with php7. Can=
 you
please change it?

BR,
Ilkka
