In Fedora we have hundreds of "composer" packages

The main benefit of composer, if that we now have a perfect description
if the dependencies

The main issue is that composer autoloader is generated after dependency
resolution, when all the stack is known, which is not suitable for
packaging.

Explained in
https://blog.remirepo.net/post/2015/06/30/PHP-SIG-autoloader

BTW, we now have drop the idea to use the Symfony autoloader and prefer
to avoid pulling it for all packages.

We prefer to use https://github.com/php-fedora/autoloader
and often generates classmap with https://github.com/theseer/Autoload

More in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/PHP/PackagingTips

All works really well:

- hundreds of libraries
- frameworks (SF, ZF)
- multiple versions of some libraries
- lot of developer app (phpunit 5, 6, 7 and 8, php-cs-fixer, phan, ...)
- various web app (phpMyAdmin, GLPI, ...)

And of course, upstream test suites are run during the build and in our
CI,
