PHP flavor Docker Image v8 family not used the latest available (8.1.0)

[llaville]

Describe the bug

I've didn't noticed it yet, until today, but the PHP flavor Docker Image used is not the latest v8 family available

To Reproduce

With my project BOX Manifest (but all used the same principle), the GitHub Action Workflow that run MegaLinter is referenced by

jobs:
    lint_files:
        uses: llaville/.github/.github/workflows/mega-linter.yml@master

And parent workflow https://github.com/llaville/.github/blob/master/.github/workflows/mega-linter.yml#L70 that reference the PHP flavor

• i.e : with my today run
  https://github.com/llaville/box-manifest/actions/runs/11640840825/workflow#L17

Expected behavior

Got latest Docker Image 8.1.0 but got only 8.0.0

Screenshots

Additional context

Images available on Docker Hub

BTW, when I click on Megalinter documentation GitHub Action on Usage section of PHP flavor
(see https://megalinter.io/latest/flavors/php/)

I got a 404
from (URL https://megalinter.io/8.1.0/installation/#github-action redirected to https://megalinter.io/latest/installation/#github-action)

When I pull locally (on my dev platform) the latest v8 Docker Image, I don't have the same issue

docker pull oxsecurity/megalinter-php:v8

This is probably the reason why I don't noticed until today that GitHub Action did not pull the v8.1 image

[llaville]

Ok, found origin !

It seems that GitHub Action syntax does not works like Docker Image syntax :

When we try with :

oxsecurity/megalinter/flavors/php@v8

And

oxsecurity/megalinter/flavors/[email protected]

We did not get the same image (expected to have both 8.1.0), but in first case we still have 8.0.0

While with Docker Image syntax, both syntaxes did the same thing (pull the latest v8.1.0)

oxsecurity/megalinter-php:v8
// or
oxsecurity/megalinter-php:v8.1.0

Confirmed by my test with commit llaville/box-manifest@e0c6e68 and llaville/.github@master...ml_v8

@llaville I noticed an issue with a CI job that stopped working after v8.0.0

https://github.com/oxsecurity/megalinter/actions/runs/11650500232/job/32439311091

When we release a minor version, for example 8.1.0, it is supposed to overwrite v8, on the docker image, but also on the github action tag

The action is failing, I declared a bug on their repo -> Actions-R-Us/actions-tagger#94
