Bug 75108 – Horde forces USE=session for php-4.x

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description James Gatt 2004-12-20 15:12:22 UTC]

I already have horde-2.2.5 installed. There are two contradictions in this report:

1. Can the installation be upgraded or not? First the suggestion is no, then the statement is yes.

2. nls is definitely in my "USE". (I assume this is also shown by the line before "you MUST re- emerge...".) However the report says I must have at least one of "nls session", which I have. I don't think I had session when I installed horde-2.2.5. I have set up postgresql to store settings.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start on a system with horde-2.2.5 already installed.
2. emerge horde
3.

Actual Results:  
>>> emerge (1 of 1) www-apps/horde-2.2.7 to /
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) horde-2.2.7.tar.gz
 * You already have something installed in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/horde
 * Are you trying to install over the top of something I cannot upgrade?
 * 
 * I can upgrade the contents of /var/www/localhost/htdocs/horde
 * 
nls
 * You MUST re-emerge  with at least one of
 * the following options in your USE:
 *  nls session

!!! ERROR: www-apps/horde-2.2.7 failed.
!!! Function horde_pkg_setup, Line 61, Exitcode 0
!!! current mod_php install cannot support horde
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.


Expected Results:  
Upgrade to horde-2.2.7 with me then having to merge in the changes I made to 
the horde config files in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/horde/ using etc-update.

[Comment 1 Simone Gotti (RETIRED) 2004-12-20 15:29:58 UTC]

I think that the problem is the wrong use of "built_with_use"

" if ! built_with_use mod_php ${HORDE_PHP_FEATURES} ; then "

will be ok only if both "nls" and "session" are active in mod_php.

This will never happen as "session" is not a useflag of mod_php-4*

[Comment 2 Simone Gotti (RETIRED) 2004-12-20 15:36:57 UTC]

Another little typo is that "phpver" is never defined, and it should say not [only] the version but at least the package name "mod_php":

'You MUST re-emerge  with at least one of"
                 ^^^^^^

[Comment 3 bravecobra 2004-12-20 19:38:58 UTC]

Having the same problem here. Strangely enough that same USE flag is also in horde-2.2.5, so did it get added after I emerged it without incrementing to an r2?

[Comment 4 Martin Tsachev 2004-12-23 01:40:44 UTC]

I just remoted session from the list of required PHP features and it installed. It's not a valid flag anyway.

grep session /var/db/pkg/dev-php/mod_php-4.3.10/IUSE

fixed in cvs

[Comment 6 Morten Mertner 2005-01-16 19:00:53 UTC]

The fix does not work when you have both PHP4 and PHP5 installed. The ebuild should check which is the default (by checking /etc/conf.d/apache[2]).
