[Bug 569865] [NEW] gallery2 installation fails

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Binary package hint: gallery2

Step 8 of the gallery2 web installation fails due to deprecation errors:

Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated
in /usr/share/gallery2/modules/core/classes/GalleryStorage.class on line
290 Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated in
/usr/share/gallery2/modules/core/classes/GalleryStorage.class on line
1120 Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated in
/usr/share/gallery2/modules/core/classes/GalleryStorage.class on line
1120 Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated in
/usr/share/gallery2/modules/core/classes/GalleryStorage.class on line
1120

errors like these continue for another couple of hundred lines, the
installation of gallery2 stops there without a working gallery.

As can be seen on http://php.net/manual/en/function.ereg.php the ereg
function has been deprecated as of PHP 5.3.0, PCRE compatible regular
expressions (http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.pcre.php) should be used.

** Affects: php5 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: High
         Status: Confirmed
