Public bug reported:
I am the maintainer of several (non packaged) PHP extensions. A user
reported through https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-php-driver/issues/255
that "phpize" now throws a warning about a missing ltmain.sh (details
about that in the previously mentioned GitHub issue).
This is on (beta1):
derick@ubuntu-desktop-16:/tmp/xdebug$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu Xenial Xerus (development branch)
Release: 16.04
After some research, I found out that the problem was caused by a dangling
symlink:
In /usr/lib/php/20151012/build, the ltmain.sh "file" is a symlink to
../../../../share/libtool/confg/ltmain.sh. However, the target does not
exist. This means that PHP's phpize can not copy it. And that's why you
get the error. The correct symlink is to ../../../../share/libtool
/build-aux/ltmain.sh, and if I change it to that, it works:
cd /usr/lib/php/20151012/build
sudo rm ltmain.sh
sudo ln -s ../../../../share/libtool/build-aux/ltmain.sh .
cd /tmp/mongo-php-driver
phpize
Which then outputs:
Configuring for:
PHP Api Version: 20151012
Zend Module Api No: 20151012
Zend Extension Api No: 320151012
./configure and make and make install work fine too then.
