Security support for php74 will expire on 28th November, 2022. Currently this is just a placeholder to track what ports fails to build when there is no php74 and check whether if it is possible to update them to support later versions of PHP like 8.0 or 8.1 or newer upcoming version. I have started exp-run to check which ports fails to build without php74 and add those as dependencies of this bug. There is nothing to be alarmed with this bug at the moment. Details about supported PHP versions and their EOL are available from where: https://www.php.net/supported-versions
