What forced me to reinstall apache / php /mysql was that next to mysql upgrade, apache failed to start because of an error with libmysqlclient.so in Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge apache mysql php mod_php 2. 3. Actual Results: Failed to (re)install PHP :-( Expected Results: Nice install from php and mod_php ;-)
Nicolas, see Bug 78678
attach your config.log
No config.log found and as it was linked to bug 78678 - it's now solved... :)
Nevertheless, this bug remains: PHP 4.3.10 refuses to compile if the compiler is determined to be a cross compiler (which, for some reason, it always is on my system).
Sebastian Redl: that's PHP not generating the correct error message as usual. Attach your config.log as originally requested.
Never mind, I figured the problem out. My problem was that the simple test program created to test the compiler already linked against libxmlparse, which in turn required libmysqlclient.so.12, but as I recently upgraded to 4.1, I only had 14. So running the program failed and configure thought it was dealing with a cross compiler. My fault for not running revdep-rebuild earlier.
