Bug 509516 – dev-lang/php with >sys-apps/file-5.11 - ?

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 467756
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Andrey Niahajchyk 2014-05-04 09:10:36 UTC]

Any Gentoo system fail if:
* sys-apps/file>5.11
* you use mod_php
* and run the following code:
<?php
$realpath = realpath("extensions/Vector/modules/images/portal-break.png");
echo finfo_file( finfo_open( FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE ), $realpath );
?>
Note: this example for MediaWiki 1.19.11 root folder

PHP versions affected: 5.3, 5.4, 5.5 (any)

I'm asking to return file 5.11 and hardcode it in PHP ebuilds until linked issue will be fixed.

Reproducible: Always

I'm fairly certain that the bug report you referred to and responded to has nothing to do with the bug you're reporting.

The bug that I've mention is the root of problem. And the problem is in PHP.
Yes, it doesn't related to Gentoo project but I've taken description and solution for this problem from the related issue.

I've just tested on ~amd64 with sys-apps/file-5.18, php 5.3.28-r1 and php-5.5.8 and the output of your php code is:

file-5.18 package is masked. I'll try to unmask at the evening and test.

[Comment 5 Andrey Niahajchyk 2014-05-06 06:47:34 UTC]

It is still reproducible for file-5.18.

Note: it is not reproducible through php-cli. You have to use mod_php.
