Created attachment 42395 [details]
the config.log

[Comment 2 Csaba Tóth 2004-10-23 18:31:14 UTC]

what should i do?
please give me an advice!

[Comment 3 Jan Gutter 2004-11-01 02:08:17 UTC]

try again with:
USE="-dbm" emerge php

Currently the dbm flag does not work with php5.

[Comment 4 Chris Verges 2004-11-15 00:29:42 UTC]

Hallelujah, that seemed to do it!  Might it be possible to have the ebuild strip dbm from the USE flags since it is broken?

[Comment 5 Chris Verges 2004-11-15 00:33:04 UTC]

In fact, on that same note, if there are flags which an ebuild does not currently support, why aren't the ebuilds simply built from the start with those flags stripped out?

[Comment 6 Wolfram Schlich (RETIRED) 2005-01-26 05:53:45 UTC]

same here -- a known non-working flag must not be available for use.

[Comment 7 Csaba Tóth 2005-02-06 09:10:30 UTC]

Ok, so if we not set the dba use flag, it will compile nicely.
But, i hope this would not be the final solution, and the dba use flag will hide until it will be okay.
But the mistery was solved, so i change the status to LATER.

[Comment 8 Csaba Tóth 2005-02-06 09:11:46 UTC]

sorry, the flag's name is dbm not dba.
