Some phing tasks require the Intl extension but the dependency is not declared about phing

Hello, not a bug, it's like that by design.

This way people not using TstampTask are not forced to install Intl extension in vain.
There are other Tasks that have the same behaviour.

I kindly suggest to add Intl extension as a dev dependency (require-dev section) in your own project:

$ composer require ext-intl:* --dev

I guess that makes sense given phing's current structure. If tasks not everyone uses were separate/optional dependencies maybe they'd declare their own requirements, but that isn't the structure today.

Thanks so much for the quick response. I'll do as you suggested in my own project.
