Description Martin Fronek 2005-06-20 12:19:52 UTC

Ebuilds for firebird doesn't provide necessary symlink to /opt/firebird named
libgds.so
It is necessary to manual create symlink like "ln -s libfbclient.so libgds.so"
in "/opt/firebird/lib" directory. It is impossible to emerge php with firebird
support without this symlink

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. myconf="--with-interbase=/opt/firebird"  emerge php
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
checking for InterBase support... yes
checking for isc_detach_database in -lgds... no
checking for isc_detach_database in -lib_util... no
configure: error: libgds or libib_util not found! Check config.log for
more information.

!!! Please attach the config.log to your bug report:
!!! /var/tmp/portage/php-4.3.11/work/php-4.3.11/config.log

!!! ERROR: dev-php/php-4.3.11 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 485, Exitcode 0
!!! econf failed
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status
message. 

Expected Results:  

checking for InterBase support... yes
checking for isc_detach_database in -lgds... yes
checking for IRCG support... no
checking for Java support... no
checking for LDAP support... yes


I have found this bug on an AMD64 (socket 939) system with 1 GB RAM, latest
version of Gentoo 200.5
