Bug #60163 [Com]: --with-pear=PATH; PATH has no effect

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60163&edit=1 ID: 60163 Comment by: peterkokot at gmail dot com Reported by: hey at lukecarrier dot me Summary: --with-pear=PATH; PATH has no effect Status: Open Type: Bug Package: *Compile Issues Operating System: GNU/Linux; Fedora 15 PHP Version: 5.3.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Hello, I've tested this with the current Fedora 28 and the PHP 7.2.6 and upcoming PHP 7.3. I've removed the --with-srcdir option and add the --with-openssl. For the PHP 7.2, the adjusted configure options that should work ok are: ./configure --host=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu \ --build=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu \ --program-prefix= \ --prefix=/usr \ --exec-prefix=/usr \ --bindir=/usr/bin \ --sbindir=/usr/sbin \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --datadir=/usr/share \ --includedir=/usr/include \ --libdir=/usr/lib64 \ --libexecdir=/usr/libexec \ --localstatedir=/var \ --sharedstatedir=/var/lib \ --mandir=/usr/share/man \ --infodir=/usr/share/info \ --cache-file=../config.cache \ --with-config-file-path=/etc/php.ini \ --with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php.ini.d \ --with-pear=/var/lib/php/pear \ --with-openssl Probably this particular bug got fixed somewhere with the migration to the newer build system and newer auto tools (configure.ac instead of configure.in). However, there is now some other bug with the latest PHP 7.3 version which will be reported in a separate bug report. When enabling the phar extension the pear installation fails with some errors.
