See below. I tried remerging and got the same results. 4.3.4-r4 has been unmerged. When I remove -D PHP4 from conf.d/apache2, apache runs fine.

I masked 4.3.7-r1 and remerged 4.3.4-r4, same problem.
go and trace down the RAND_seed symbol on your system and compile it with -fPIC.
I tried the previously-working version of apache (2.0.49-r3) with both versions of PHP, same problem. I also tried remerging openssl, which I think defines RAND_seed, same problem. I just updated to mod_php 4.3.8, same problem. My system is current except I'm using: sys-libs/glibc-2.3.2-r9 sys-devel/gcc-3.2.3-r4 Since the current snapshots are known broken. Please advise - I'm stuck on a production machine with no PHP.
RAND_seed comes from openssl i believe ...
Yes I think so too - any idea why it might be failing on that symbol? Toby
mod_php works fine when I set USE="-imap" Toby
The problem is that net-libs/c-client is not installed, and it is blocked by virtual/imap-c-client (provided by net-mail/uw-imap). How can I get the symbols supplied by c-client without removing uw-imap? Is it simply a matter of telling php with imap to link to the uw-imap-provided c-client? Toby
I rebuild uw-imap (the c-client provider) with USE="pic" (position independent code), in hope of fixing: R_PPC_REL24 relocation at 0x0dba7f40 for symbol `RAND_seed' out of range but no luck. So perhaps PHP/ppc needs to be fixed to link against the PIC code in uw-imap?
net-libs/c-client is a stripped down uw-imap, to provide the imap library and headers ONLY. if you don't use uw-imap at all, unmerge it and merge c-client instead. i've definetly made sure the PIC stuff is in c-client. try to build openssl, c-client, php, mod_php all in sequence with USE="ssl imap pic"
I would, but I use uw-imap as my local imapd. uw-imap is built with pic, shouldn't that work? mod_php/imap did work fine before, when I was using the plain c-client (before I swapped it with uw-imap).
i've added an r3 of uw-imap, with some of the c-client pic stuff ported over. please try: USE="ssl pic imap" emerge openssl uw-imap php mod_php
After emerge sync I don't see net-mail/uw-imap-2002e-r3, even in ~ppc. Where can I find it? I'm rebuilding anyway with the latest stable ebuild (r1). Let me know if I need something else, or if this'll use your latest changes.
you'll have to wait for r3 to reach the mirrors. should take 30-90 minutes depending how busy the various mirror systems are.
I merged uw-imap-2002e-r3 and then rebuilt mod_php - it worked. Thanks! It doesn't look like any of those packages USE 'pic' anymore, but it didn't seem to matter.
yeah, PIC support is forced in at the right place for c-client/uw-imap.
When will this fix be integrated into the main branch? I just tried merging uw-imap-2004 with mod_php-4.3.10 and got the same thing. Thanks, Toby
FYI I've been using net-mail/uw-imap-2002e-r3 for 6 months now with absolute stability. Whatever change was made I trust can be added to the main branch; it's rock solid.
net-mail/uw-imap-2004a is stable on ppc. Could we close this bug or is there still a problem?
Maybe it's marked as stable, but it has the same bug as its "stable" predecessor, net-mail/uw-imap-2002e-r1 (that's why I reopened this bug). The fix I need is: 15 Jul 2004; Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org> : bug #56917, pic stuff. (from the ChangeLog)
ppc: the amd64 guys did some fixes for c-client and uw-imap. take a look at them and see if they solve this for you.
This seems fixed for me. Please reopen the bug if you're still having problems.
Yes now that uw-imap-2002e-r3 is marked stable this but is no longer relevant (r3 is the working version I moved to in January).
