Oops, this seems to be not just a docs patch. I hope this still ok for backport. |

I don't have much to say but I'm neutral on delaying the removal.
What is the rationale for defering the removal? |
You can see the issue thread. For my humble opinion the only excuse is that we miss removal of the implicit fallback to bundled copy (now #134078) in 3.14. (Though, this wasn't announced somewhere else.) We also miss libmpdec in latest ubuntu images. (I think this will be solved before 3.14 release.) |
I still think we can stick to the original plan (that is: remove the vendored copy in 3.15). The only issue to solve is installing development sources on Ubuntu for 24.04. |
FYI, I restored removal PR: #133964. I think libmpdec can be installed from PPA for PHP. |
