You need to mark all the parameters with ?int, $string in th functions to explicitly set them to null as of 8.4.x

we know this, but the repository owner does not respond

[tormit]

Any release planned with this?

hi, it's resolved in master, but our packages use stable versions, so a tag would be great. Thanks for all the work.

[ollyollyollyltd]

@voku Would you be able to publish a version including this fix? Thanks!

[Petervw]

@voku Thanks for your open-source contributions. However, we cannot upgrade several packages due to the deprecations. Could you release a new tag?

[jan-dh]

A tag would be very nice 🙏 Thanks for all the hard work!

[ollyollyollyltd]

Until a release is deployed, I am using this patch to fix the 8.4 issues. It is based on 48c36239a2792ebc999044ffab7935011a58009e and can be installed using cweagans/composer-patches

https://gist.github.com/ollyollyollyltd/1fe0a99ab262aff09b4ec17aa745b090

[lavandongen]

@voku Is is possible for you to release a new tag based on these changes?

[tormit]

There should be at least some response from owner @voku on this. What is the status or why the current master cannot be tagged?

[sokai]

JFYI (+ to calm a little bit down): https://github.com/voku/portable-utf8/pull/221#issuecomment-2898537480 Thanks @voku (in advance) if he has time to make a new tag! KR

Edit: Thought … Maybe a PR, based on the patch/gist by @ollyollyollyltd , can/could speed-up the implementation(?).

[BernhardK91]

Until @voku finds some time and energy to tag a new version, you can use this version in your composer.json:

dev-master#c4b3774

That constraint binds the package to the master branch, but for security reasons, explicitly to the latest commit that includes the fixes.
