I initially had no problem upgrading to php-4.3.11. But about 4 days ago I used some php from the command line for the first time since that upgrade, and found that doing anything at all with the php binary segfaulted. So I went to remerge the package, and now I find that the build fails. The pastebin contains the full error, but here it is again: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Libraries have been installed in: /var/tmp/portage/php-4.3.11/work/php-4.3.11/modules If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR' flag during linking and do at least one of the following: - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable during execution - add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable during linking - use the `-Wl,--rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf' See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- /usr/lib/gcc-lib/../libc-client.a(osdep.o)(.text+0x993a): In function `ssl_onceonlyinit': : warning: the use of `tmpnam' is dangerous, better use `mkstemp' Build complete.

This looks like a problem with your system (maybe a hardware problem) as PHP should not segfault and PHP 4.3.11 builds and works fine for me on both ~x86 and ~amd64.
I haven't had PHP on my box at all, although I've run php on sparc prior. However, instead of a segfault during install I get a bus error ( usually points to misaligned memory addresses on sparc ).

Hi, this error of dev-php/php when installing PEAR also appears regularly on x86, where it's not a Bus Error bug just a Segfault... Anyway, the solution is to migrate to dev-lang/php-4* instead of using the old and deprecated dev-php/{php,php-cgi,mod_php}, dev-lang/php provides all PHP SAPIs in one ebuild and works much better, also the PEAR install error cannot happen there, since we don't install PEAR as part of PHP but externally using the dev-php/PEAR-PEAR package, so it will 100% solve this problem. :) For more informations on dev-lang/php and how to upgrade to it: http://svn.gnqs.org/projects/gentoo-php-overlay/file/docs/php-upgrading.html?format=raw TIA and best regards, CHTEKK.
OK, until the old php stuff is officially deprecated and things have been stablized on the new layout, we really cannot go around telling users to use items with testing keywords when they run stable. I know you guys want to wash your hands of the old layout, but telling users running stable keywords to use packages that are masked to them is not the answer.
dev-php/php, dev-php/mod_php, and dev-php/php-cgi have been replaced by dev-lang/php. Please upgrade (following the guide at http://svn.gnqs.org/projects/gentoo-php-overlay/file/docs/php-upgrading.html?format=raw) to the new-style PHP package and open a new bug if the problem persists. Thank you.
