The old lang/php4 and lang/php5 ports have been splitted into 'base'
PHP,
PEAR, and shared extensions to allow more flexibility and add new
features.
Upgrading your current PHP installation will result in a 'base' PHP
installation (no PEAR and no extensions).
PEAR can be found in the new devel/php4-pear and devel/php5-pear
ports, while
the set of PHP extensions to install can be choosen via the meta-ports
lang/php4-extensions and lang/php5-extensions, or installing singular
extensions individually.
