I tried to add this, but it depends on app-benchmarks/ltp. PHP supports a lot of arches, and some of them aren't currently supported by ltp: * alpha * arm * ia64 * ppc64 * sparc To enable gcov painlessly, app-benchmarks/ltp will need to be keyworded for those arches. Do you know if that's possible (i.e. will ltp work at all on those arches)? If it works -- or should work -- then you can file a bug asking those arches to add keywords to ltp. Once that's done, I can make it a conditional dependency of php. So it turns out, the error message says you need LTP, but in fact all you need for PHP to build with --enable-gcov is dev-util/lcov. And that package has all of the necessary keywords. So, I've added the USE=coverage flag to the three latest revisions in the tree. Hope that helps! commit 1798839ee565695baa83ea68f08993fa12579ebf Author: Michael Orlitzky <mjo@gentoo.org> Date: Fri Dec 9 09:18:52 2016 -0500 dev-lang/php: add "coverage" USE flag to build with --enable-gcov. We add three new revisions, one for each supported branch of PHP. The new revisions have a "coverage" flag, which was chosen because a few other packages in ::gentoo have decided on the same flag name. When enabled, USE=coverage will pull in dev-util/lcov from the Linux Test Project, and PHP will be built with --enable-gcov. Since users won't be running code coverage reports on the PHP source tree itself (at least not the one used by their package manager), this is probably only useful for extension developers who would like to run code coverage reports on the test suites for their extensions. It also requires GCC to work, since lcov wraps GCC's gcov. Both of those caveats have been mentioned in the USE flag description. Gentoo-Bug: 542178 Package-Manager: portage-2.3.0 |
