[Arch] - PHP 5.5 available in the [extra] repository

For those who are not on the mailing list but do have an Arch Linux VPS:

  PHP 5.5 is finally available in our [extra] repository. The [migration guide][1]
  includes information about changes from version 5.4; a detailed list can be
  found in the [PHP Changelog][2].

  The APC package will be replaced by [APCu][3]. APCu only provides user data
  caching. For opcode caching use the new [opcache][4] extension. Alternatively we
  provide a development version of [XCache][5] which includes both, an opcode and
  user data cache.

  Most applications will run without modifications, but watch out for [deprecation
  warnings][6] that fill up your log files.
