even if this bug is seen as a rant by some "official" people involved, nobody ever gave a reason on why this _packaging_ issue seems so hard to fix.
RedHat, SuSE, Mandriva, ... to name but a few other major distributions all seem to be able to package php-mssql but obviously it seems to be impossible for ubuntu to deal with it.
