We do not support alt-php55 on these platforms. The rows claiming otherwise came from a4786af, which rebuilt these matrices from CVEDash on 2026-08-20 -- two days after cvedash_onboard_alt_streams.py --backfill-os had created alt-php55 cells for debian10 / ubuntu16.04 / ubuntu18.04 / ubuntu20.04 from the "published in the repo" criterion. That criterion was wrong: the DEB build and release which put the packages there was a mistake, and the real criterion is a customer contract.

Before a4786af the table did not claim 5.5 on any of these platforms; only Debian 13 carried it, and Debian 13 is genuinely contracted (easyname, Docker).

The CVEDash side is already reverted: the three project_to_os cells and their 742 cve_to_project_on_os rows are deleted, so audit_versions.py now reports these rows as docs_extra until this lands. Nothing was ever released on them -- zero release rows, so no erratum or CLSA is affected.

Ubuntu 16.04 came from the same backfill wave and is deliberately left alone here; it awaits its own decision and is still enabled in CVEDash.

EL rows and Debian 13 are untouched: 5.5 remains supported on el6-el10 and debian13.
