Bug 13330 – Add support for Informix to PHP/mod_php

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Shane Hyde 2003-01-05 18:41:41 UTC]

mod_php and php have no support for Informix in the ebuild.  Support can be 
added with the following patch.  The patch adds an informix USE variable.  This 
has been tested with Informix client SDK v2.80.  Hope this helps!

This is merged in the new PHP eclass for mod_php/php to be released soon.
Could you please write up an ebuild for the informix client SDK? That way more people can try it out. Maybe even an Informix server ebuild if there is some demo version available.

Post it as a new item in bugzilla, and post the bug number here.

Nevertheless there is no informix ebuild yet, this bug itself is resolved
since long time.
