I would prefer to add all of the extensions phpci found instead of determining which ones are included in core or other packages so would the following be acceptable?:
Requires: php-mbstring --> separate package Requires: php-pcre --> included in php-common package Requires: php-posix --> included in separate php-process package Requires: php-readline --> included in separate php-cli package
ok with me, I would prefer this too, You never know when an extension might be moved out of core in the future.
Since this is a console library, would it make sense to require "php-cli" instead of "php-common" since "php-cli" provides /usr/bin/php for "#!/usr/bin/php" or "#!/usr/bin/env php" script usage?
No, php-common is still better. This might for example be running in a unit testing web environment, which doesn't have php-cli.
