Description

I am running the port php5 with php5-APC. The latter is at version 3.1.9. Today I noted that all other php*-APC ports are at version 3.1.14. This can be verified by running port search php*-APC: 

$ port search php*-APC
php-APC @3.1.14 (php, devel)
    Alternative PHP Cache

php5-apc @3.1.9 (php, devel)
    Alternative PHP Cache

php53-APC @3.1.14 (php, devel)
    Alternative PHP Cache

php54-APC @3.1.14 (php, devel)
    Alternative PHP Cache

php55-APC @3.1.14 (php, devel)
    Alternative PHP Cache

Found 5 ports.

Googling around, I haven't found any reason why php5-APC isn't at 3.1.14 (like the other php*-APC ports).

So this issue is a request to have the port php5-APC updated to used APC version 3.1.14, so it matches the other php*-APC ports.

3.1.9 is the latest stable version; see: ​http://pecl.php.net/package/APC. We usually keep ports at the latest stable version, unless there is a specific reason not to.

In the case of php-APC, the specific reason is that 3.1.9 does not build with PHP 5.4 and 5.5. That reason does not exist for PHP 5.3.

I'm planning to keep php5-APC at 3.1.9 until a new stable version of APC is released. I encourage you to use the php5x ports instead of the old php5 ports, and also to urge the developer to release a new stable version.
