Description Matthew Walker 2003-01-22 17:40:58 UTC
When installing PHP 4.3 on my system running GCC 2.95.3, I get the following
output. This is obviously incorrect.

If you need any further info, please ask. 

I have tested the PHP configure script outside the ebuild system, and it worked 
just fine, properly detecting that GCC was not a cross compiler.

I also tried removing the -pipe and -O3 flags from the build options, and it 
still had the same problem.

Comment 8 Ryan Phillips (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-01-27 12:49:13 UTC

Comment 9 Matthew Walker 2003-01-27 13:08:05 UTC
Okay, just installed gcc-config 1.3.1, and I'm getting exactly the same 
behavior.
Comment 10 Matthew Walker 2003-01-27 18:18:19 UTC
Just a note:

I just had to restart my Apache server, which forced me to figure out a way to 
get PHP to rebuild. (My old PHP was linked against a library that no longer 
exists on my system...)

I managed to get it to work by executing the ebuild one step at a time except 
for the configure step. I forced the ebuild to just output the configure line 
it would have run, and ran it myself on the portage working directory. It 
worked properly, and I was able to continue with the step-by-step ebuild.

Just in case, I'm going to re-emerge Python and Portage and see if that fixes 
the problem, since it's apparently some kind of issue with the Portage build 
environment.

I'm willing to let Ryan in to take a look at my box firsthand, if you want. As I said, I've found a workaround, but it's a pain in the butt to do, so I'd like to get this solved.

Also, Ryan logged in and did a lot of poking around. The problem is somehow related to the 'xml' use flag, and the portage environment. I'm not sure what all he discovered, so you'll have to get the details from him. But, for the time being, I've got a working system.
Comment 16 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2003-02-25 00:02:47 UTC
I unmasked mysql-4.0.10 to install it on my box, and trying to rebuild PHP (4.3.1) afterwards, I get the same error about cross-compiling. I also tried the latest PHP-4.3.1-r1, with the same result. Removing -O3/-pipe from the CFLAGS has no effect.

I'm busy rebuilding glibc on a hunch at the moment.

Comment 17 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2003-02-25 08:55:45 UTC
solution found!

it's because of net-libs/libwww and >=mysql-4

net-libs/libwww contains:
/usr/lib/libxmlparse.so
/usr/lib/libxmltok.so
which both link against libmysqlclient.so.10 ...

I had mysql-3 installed, but upgraded to mysql-4 because i needed some advanced features only in the 4 line.

then, going to build my php, it was failing with that error.

when the PHP configure tries to build it's conftest for cross complining
it links against xmltok and xmlparse. since then link to libmysqlclient.so.10 and that file no longer exists (it became libmysqlclient.so.12 with mysql-4) the conftest wouldn't run, and the way the script was set up, it detected this as a cross-compiler.

the ebuilds for net-libs/libwww all contain: 
!>=mysql-4

the change to exclude mysql-4 was made because of bug 15099 

I'm going to write up some fixes to libwww and submit them to w3c for this.

I've temporarily done:
USE="-mysql" emerge net-libs/libwww
so that I can get to rebuilding my PHP

Comment 21 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2003-03-03 06:24:24 UTC
I haven't got to writing any patches for libwww yet so it can compile, but can something more sensible be done with the libwww ebuild so that it only compiles in support for MySQL if the version is less than 4 ? and DOESN'T give a warning otherwise.
