[php-maint] Bug#632838: cannot surpress deprecated warning with "error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED"

[Raoul Bhatia [IPAX]]

Package: php5-cli
Version: 5.3.3-7+squeeze3
Severity: important

deprecation warnings are still shown if error_reporting is set to
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED.

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_WARNING incorrectly disables the
deprecation warning.

sample php.ini files with deprecated option set "register_long_arrays".

p1.ini
> [PHP]
> error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED
> error_logging = STDOUT
> register_long_arrays = On

p2.ini
> [PHP]
> error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_WARNING
> error_logging = STDOUT
> register_long_arrays = On


"error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED" does not suppress the warning
> raoul at dev64:~$ php -nc p1.ini -r 'echo "test\n";'
> 
> Warning: Directive 'register_long_arrays' is deprecated in PHP 5.3 and greater in Unknown on line 0
> test

"error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_WARNING" successfully suppresses the
warning but actually is incorrect
> raoul at dev64:~$ php -nc p2.ini -r 'echo "test\n";'
> test
