Updated to Symfony 6.4

Since updating my server earlier in the year, and thus moving to PHP 8, I would’ve been able to update to Symfony 6. I didn’t get around to it until today, though. I’ve been fixing deprecations in my code mostly as they appear (in profiler, console, logs, or automated tests) so I didn’t have a lot to do this time. I changed ^5.4 to ^6.4 in my composer.json and then had to adjust a few minor things in config. Some of those took longer than they should’ve though.

Server upgraded from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04

My server was on Ubuntu 20.04, but due to the end-of-life of that LTS version next month, I have upgraded to 22.04. My server is managed with Vagrant / Ansible. My plan had been to do a new local VM on the newer version, get it working properly with Ansible, then set up a new server with it and migrate over. However, since Ubuntu isn’t releasing an official Vagrant box for 24.04 and beyond, I don’t think it makes sense to take that path. I may move over to Debian or look into Vagrant alternatives, but to get this done before EOL, I decided to just try a do-release-upgrade to upgrade the existing server in place.

Upgraded Symfony 4.4 to 5.4

I’ve upgraded my website to Symfony 5.4 from 4.4. I’ve continued on without Symfony Flex, as I had when updating from 3.4 to 4.4. The procedure was fairly similar to that, fixing any Symfony 4 deprecations and then updating the composer version constraints, fixing anything broken after that. I also switched from requiring the symfony/symfony repo to requiring individual components. It went fairly smoothly, aside from needing to fix a few things after the composer update.
