Description Carsten Otto 2004-04-03 15:56:50 UTC

Hello!
I'd like to use PHP with support for postgresql. The use flag "postgresql" is set, but after a re-emerge I noticed PHP does not care. Please include support for that flag in the next ebuild.
Thanks, C-Otto

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ufed -> search for postgresql
2. emerge -vp php
3. drink a beer

the flag is 'postgres' not 'postgresql' and I use it perfectly fine.

I've encountered the same error:
this is what emerge is going to do:

emerge -pv php

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!

As you can see emerge will install php with postgresql support, but looking at the output of a php page like this:
<?
     phpinfo();
?>

I see that in the ./configure command there's a "--without-pgsql" flag...

This appens with dev-php/php-4.3.8, on x86 architecture

Switched to dev-php/php-4.3.9 with dev-php/mod_php-4.3.9 and all works fine ;)
