Bug #69132 [NEW]: PHP 5.6.6 will not cross-compile

From: mike at flyn dot org Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.6.6 Package: *General Issues Bug Type: Bug Bug description:PHP 5.6.6 will not cross-compile Description: ------------ I am interested in updating the PHP package for OpenWrt, a Linux distribution for routers and other similar devices. Due to the wide variety of devices supported, packagers generally cross compile OpenWrt packages. It seems that PHP 5.6.4 is a little more difficult to cross compile than OpenWrt's last supported version, 5.4.36. For example, 5.6.4's "./configure ..." prints an error which states that the test program responsible for checking for the existence of strcasestr cannot run. (The reason it cannot run is that it was not compiled for the host architecture.) Actual result: -------------- [...] checking whether to enable EXIF (metadata from images) support... yes, shared checking for fileinfo support... yes, shared checking for strcasestr... configure: error: in `/home/mike/Source/openwrt/openwrt/build_dir/target-mips_34kc_uClibc-0.9.33.2/php-5.6.6': configure: error: cannot run test program while cross compiling See `config.log' for more details Makefile:518: recipe for target '/home/mike/Source/openwrt/openwrt/build_dir/target-mips_34kc_uClibc-0.9.33.2/php-5.6.6/.configured_nynyyynnnnnyynnynnynynnynynynnnnnnnynnnyyy' failed make[2]: *** [/home/mike/Source/openwrt/openwrt/build_dir/target-mips_34kc_uClibc-0.9.33.2/php-5.6.6/.configured_nynyyynnnnnyynnynnynynnynynynnnnnnnynnnyyy] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/mike/Source/openwrt/openwrt/feeds/packages/lang/php5' package/Makefile:173: recipe for target 'package/feeds/packages/php5/compile' failed make[1]: *** [package/feeds/packages/php5/compile] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/mike/Source/openwrt/openwrt' /home/mike/Source/openwrt/openwrt/include/toplevel.mk:171: recipe for target 'package/php5/compile' failed make: *** [package/php5/compile] Error 2 -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69132&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69132&r=mysqlcfg
