#41254 [NEW]: 64bit libmcrypt not found after bug #39935 fixed

From: jason at ionzoft dot com Operating system: RedHat ES 4 PHP version: 5.2.1 PHP Bug Type: *Configuration Issues Bug description: 64bit libmcrypt not found after bug #39935 fixed Description: ------------ This is not a bug. It is documentation of a problem encountered when using libmcrypt on 64 bit machines and upgrading PHP to 5.2.1. --------------------------------------- In reference to Bug #39935 (extensions tidy,mcrypt,mhash,pdo_sqlite ignores --with-libdir), I have encountered an error post-compile. Previously, mcrypt ignored --with-libdir, and naturally looked in /usr/local/lib for libmcrtpy.so.4. After bug #39935 was fixed, libmcrypt began to look in the right place (which I have specified as /lib64 on 64 bit machines). A potential solution is to compile libmcrypt with --libdir=/lib64. It took a lot of hunting to find this answer, and perhaps there is a place that this information could be posted. Thanks.
