Jan Tojnar: I have been working on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/180827 but I'm unable to trigger the update script.

I tried with nix-update -u php81 but I end up with error (see in the PR). I guess this is not the proper way to trigger it?

On the other hand, I updated the script (without being able to test it) as such, what do you think?

            updateScript = writeShellScript "update.sh" ''
              PATH=${lib.makeBinPath [ nix-update curl jq ]}
              new_version=$(curl --silent "https://www.php.net/releases/active" | jq --raw-output '."${lib.versions.major version}"."${lib.versions.majorMinor version}".version')
              nix-update --override-filename ./${lib.versions.majorMinor version}.nix --version "$new_version" php${lib.versions.major version}${lib.versions.minor version}
            '';
