Hello, I wanted to install PHP on a FreeBSD 4.7 system.
In /usr/ports/lang/php4 I chose the following options (those I need and the pre-checked ones) [x] GD2 [x] zlib [x] MySQL [x] XML [x] XSLT [x] DOMXML Unfortunately, I got an Error checking for readline in -lreadline... no configure: error: readline library not found ===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly. Then, I installed readline-4.2.tar.gz from http://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/~chet/readline/rltop.html with tar -zxvf readline-4.2.tar.gz, ./configure, make and make install. No Errors occured during that installation. Again, I tried the FreeBSD port with make clean make distclean make The readline error is still there. It does not occur if I don't want to install GD2. It uses gd-2.0.1_3, so I think I don't need the patch for GD version 2.0.8. (And GD 2.0.1 already works fine as an Apache module) Google helped me to find a hint to use --without-readline to get around the problem. But a make --without-readline does not help much. Or where else should I use this option? Some more information: uname -v FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE #0: Wed Oct 9 15:08:34 GMT 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC I can send the config.log or a 'ls /var/db/pkg'-dump if needed.
