Indeed, as the module was not loaded (due it's missing config in
correct place for PHP 5.4), this should not have been a problem for
the php5 source package and it's reported against php5-suhosin.

Anyways, I still would love a bit more communication, when directly
affecting other packages with actions. But I also can understand, that
there are a couple of php packages around.

Maybe you could with the next upload to wheezy include a versioned
Break against "php5-suhosin (<=0.9.33-3)", which doesn't hurt anyone
but give us the option to get a php5-suhosin installed on wheezy
afterwards?

We'll see ... as long as we'll migrate away from single point of
esser, this will be an improvement. :-)

Cheers, Jan.
