#50190 [Opn]: need libtool >=1.5.26

ID: 50190 User updated by: ralphdoncaster at gmail dot com Reported By: ralphdoncaster at gmail dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Apache2 related Operating System: AIX 5.3 PHP Version: 5.2.11 New Comment: I tried it again with need_version=1.5.26 and it makes no difference. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-11-20 13:02:46] ralphdoncaster at gmail dot com I don't have gnu diff installed, but I think the diff is a red herring anyway; we know it's the difference between 1.5.20 & 1.5.26. I think the issue may be the version of autoconf used to build the distribution configure script(if libtool is included as part of autoconf, which I'm not so sure it is). Since the date stamp for 1.5.26 is 2008/01/30, if autoconf 2.61 or earlier was used to build configure, it can't have included libtool 1.5.26. build/buildcheck.sh only requires autoconf 2.13 or newer. If autoconf just uses the version of libtool installed on the distribution build box, then maybe changing libtool.m4:1236 might work: need_version=no to: need_version=1.5.26 might work. I tried rebuilding configure (I have autoconf 2.59 and no libtool installed). The libtool that was created after running configure was still 1.5.20. here's what I ran: autoconf ./configure ./libtool --version ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-11-17 09:14:09] jani@php.net How about a 'diff -u' between the PHP libtool and Apache libtool? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-11-16 17:11:32] ralphdoncaster at gmail dot com configure generates the libtool script, so after running configure I replaced it with the newer version that comes with apache2. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 32 Nov 13 13:19 libtool -> /usr/local/apache2/build/libtool I have no experience with autoconf, and my only m4 experience is from a bit of sendmail twiddling. When I searched the bugs db I saw some references to libtool getting included with autoconf, so whoever did that would probably be able to create a patch much easier than I could. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-11-16 16:12:05] jani@php.net Exactly how did you replace it? If you have a patch, feel free to provide one. See build/libtool.m4 for more.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-11-16 14:49:48] ralphdoncaster at gmail dot com Description: ------------ libtool 1.5.20 is bundled with PHP. This version does not copy libphp5.so on make install. libtool 1.5.26 works properly This seems to have already been reported as bug #48427, but was closed as bogus (nobody realized the problem is with libtool, not gnu ld) Reproduce code: --------------- ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs make install Expected result: ---------------- libphp5.so should get copied to apache2 modules dir Actual result: -------------- it fails I replaced libtool 1.5.20 with 1.5.26 from the apache2 build, then make install works fine. bash-3.2# ./libtool --version ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.5.26 (1.1220.2.492 2008/01/30 06:40:56) Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
