How to install Doctrine 2.6?

Question

symfony

I'm trying to install Doctrine 2.6 on Symfony 3.4. Registered:

"require": {
        "doctrine/orm": "^2.6-dev",

When I try to update it says:

Problem 1
- Installation request for doctrine/orm ^2.6-dev -> satisfiable by doctrine/orm[2.6.x-dev].
- doctrine/orm 2.6.x-dev requires php ^7.1 -> your PHP version (7.1.5) overridden by "config.platform.php" version (5.5.9) does not satisfy that requirement.

What kind of nonsense? As far as I know, ^7.1 means >7.1 and <8.0 , 7.1.5 version should be fine. How to bypass this garbage?

Answer 1

Everything is in the text. You have a different version in your config.
