I'm looking at Ubuntu 14.04 LTS And it is running PHP 5.5 which will no
longer be supported after June of 2016. That would be about a year and
a half from now.
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is supported through Jan or Feb of 2019 or about 4
years.
How does this work? Does someone patch the unsupported PHP, MySql, and
Apache or does Ubuntu add the newer version that is supported by their
maintainers? In other words is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS going to always contain
PHP 5.5 (and maintain it themselves) or will Ubuntu 14.04 LTS pull in a
more recent version of PHP that is still supported by PHP?
Thanks!!
