Description Angus Donaldson 2004-08-19 15:15:48 UTC

I merged mod_php version 5 latest as of thu 19 august 2004 after sync at 2300 GMT
I then rebooted to find a multitude of errors! booted from a cd rom and found my /lib directory linked to apache extra modules directory. I am no expert but i found some of the files that are usualy in /lib in lib64 so ln -s lib64 lib and now things are ok hope this is the right way to fix? DONT USE THIS EBUILD !!! 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge mod_php
2.reboot 
3. panic

Actual Results:  
unable to log in noty pam modules etc lots of console errors etc etc

Expected Results:  
booted normaly and presented me with a usable shell
