/usr/portage/net-www/apache/apache-2.0.54-r31.ebuild(167): # as decided on IRC-AGENDA-10.2004, we use httpd.conf as standard config file name sed -i -e 's:apache2\.conf:httpd.conf:' include/ap_config_auto.h /usr/lib/apache2/build/config_vars.mk(51, 85): progname = apache2 /usr/sbin/apxs2(38): my $CFG_TARGET = get_vars("progname"); If the name of the configuration file is to be different than the binary, then it seems that this code can't work. Maybe there needs to be a separate variable for the config file name. Changing /usr/sbin/apxs2 line 38 to my $CFG_TARGET = "httpd"; # get_vars("progname"); allowed me to work around the problem and get the install to finish. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. php-5.0.5 # ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs2 ... 2. php-5.0.5 # make 3. php-5.0.5 # make install Actual Results: Build complete. (It is safe to ignore warnings about tempnam and tmpnam).

We have php ebuilds in portage, that work just fine. Compiling things manually, you are on your own.
I think it's worth reopening this bug. (I was going to file, but saw this in the possible dupes.) apxs is recommended by the Apache guide to develop extensions [1], so it might be confusing or annoying to people following that. [1]: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/developer/modguide.html
