Bug Description

/usr/share/roundcube/program/include/iniset.php starts with a test for:

if (PHP_VERSION_ID >= 80000)

and refuses to run if this is true.

The version of php shipped in Impish is 8.0, so this test fails and roundcube fails to start.

There is no earlier version of php available.

Roundcube has php 8 support since version 1.5
https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases/tag/1.5.0

roundcube 1.5.0+dfsg.1-2 is available for next Jammy release, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/roundcube
Can this be backported to Impish?

If it's any help I ended up using a download of the standard 1.5 on Impish. It needed:

    php-pear
    php-sqlite3
    php-json
    php-mbstring
    php-intl
    libapache2-mod-php
    sqlite3

from Impish. (I have a sqlite3 database).

My workaround is different:
* add jammy to /etc/apt/source.list
* add apt pinning via new file /etc/apt/preferences.d/ubuntu_apt-pinning.pref
Content:
Package: *
Pin: release o=Ubuntu,n=jammy
Pin-Priority: -1
* update indices: apt-get update
* force install of jammy package of roundcube: apt-get -t jammy install roundcube
* check config
* working fine for me (sqlite3 db)
