Hi All,

I'm migrating a project from php 5 to 8 thanks to PhpStan, but it seems to be an issue with the placeholders in printf/sprintf functions recognised from PhpStan.

In the project, there is a lot of printf / sprintf calls that contains %lu as a placeholder, but PhpStan doesn't seem to know it's a placeholder, so it's returning an error for each occurences.

So I'm questionning myself as to know if it's the normal behavior or not to throw an error on this placeholder.

PS: I couldn't find a similar question on the web, nor a clue as to why this placeholder is different, if it's a duplicate I'm sorry.

Thanks folks,
