Hi Alexander,

This package segmentation seems better.
I think all php-ZendFramework-Db-Adapters can be included in one package, though
it is true one would usually need only one or maximum two of these. Maybe it's
better to have all common DBs in one package which requires php-pdo and the rest
in another package. This would mean you will install the Oracle stuff even if
you only want to use DB2 which is not so nice but on the other hand, there's
something logical about deviding the whole DB support into common and misc DBs.
I think most PHP developers use PDO to access MySQL, PGSQL, SQLite, etc and a
substantial lesser amount of developers use DB2 and OCI8 directly so the
separation makes sense. MySQLi is somewhat hard to decide upon because it does
not belong with the PDO and is pretty commonly used... I admit I am not sure as
to whether it should be in it's own package or included somewhere else.

About mime_magic, it is true that php.net declares it as deprecated by Fileinfo
from PECL but their APIs are not entirely compatible and I think many people
still use mime_magic. It's source is included in the PHP 5.2.6 [latest stable]
source tree under ext/mime_magic and it would be very easy to make an RPM out of
it. I will send you a spec file shortly.
