Bug 71725 – php and mod_php need warning removed about mysqli need MySQL 4.1

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Peter Gordon (RETIRED) 2004-11-18 23:15:17 UTC]

I've unmasked and installed MySQL 4.1.7 from Portage, and was about to re-compile php and mod_php in order to use the mysqli extension, but Portage says:

 * 
 * We currently do not support the mysqli extension
 * Support will be added once MySQL 4.1 has been added to Portage
 * 

But 4.1 is already in Portage. Perhaps this can be changed by adding something such as "mysqli ? (>=dev-db/mysql-4.1.0)" to the php and mod_php ebuilds?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge sync
2. Add ">=dev-db/mysql-4.1" and dev-perl/DBD-mysql to /etc/portage/package.unmask
3. USE="mysqli" emerge mysql php mod_php


Actual Results:  
>>> dev-db/mysql-4.1.7 merged.
>>> Recording dev-db/mysql in "world" favorites file...

>>> clean: No packages selected for removal.

>>> emerge (2 of 5) dev-php/php-5.0.2-r1 to /
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) php-5.0.2.tar.bz2
 * 
 * We currently do not support the mysqli extension
 * Support will be added once MySQL 4.1 has been added to Portage
 * 

!!! ERROR: dev-php/php-5.0.2-r1 failed.
!!! Function php5-sapi_check_awkward_uses, Line 116, Exitcode 0
!!! mysqli not supported yet
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.



Expected Results:  
I was expecting that php would build with support for the mysqli extension.

Thanks. I'll try that.

[Comment 4 Allen Parker 2004-12-22 09:33:53 UTC]

Since MySQL 4.1.7 is in portage, why don't we bug the maintainer of php5-sapi.eclass to fix the eclass?
