I'm sorry for by wronglish... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-08-28 02:38:45] petk@php.net Ok, yes. Now, I understand. Confirmed then. Thanks for reporting.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-08-28 02:36:39] l dot declercq at nuxwin dot com @petk To fix the problem, I had to patch as follow: --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -1550,6 +1550,7 @@ AC_DEFINE([HAVE_BUILD_DEFS_H], 1, [ ]) +$php_shtool mkdir -p pear $php_shtool mkdir -p scripts $php_shtool mkdir -p scripts/man1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-08-28 02:33:37] l dot declercq at nuxwin dot com petk@php.net I've explained you already. When you build in a subdirectory (build directory), and if the pear directory isn't create in that directory, the pear installation will fail in case the pear/install-pear-nozlib.phar has been provided in the top build directory. Basically, when I build, I've the following: root@phpswitcher:/# tree /usr/local/src/phpswitcher/php-7.4.0beta4/pear/ /usr/local/src/phpswitcher/php-7.4.0beta4/pear/ ├── fetch.php ├── install-pear-nozlib.phar ├── install-pear.txt └── Makefile.frag 0 directories, 4 files On that, we agreed together. But my build is done in a subdirectory, that is: /usr/local/src/phpswitcher/php-7.4.0beta4/7.4-build and if the pear directory isn't created inside the /usr/local/src/phpswitcher/php-7.4.0beta4/7.4-build build directory (past behavior), the PEAR installation will fail, at least when the install-pear-nozlib.phar is part of the release. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-08-28 02:26:36] petk@php.net Then I am not sure what is the issue here. Can you explain and talk about the issue or send a pull request? The PHP-7.4.0beta4 package downloaded from https://downloads.php.net/~derick/ includes this phar PEAR installation file at pear/install-pear-nozlib.phar so no additional files are needed to have downloaded for installing PEAR. The Git repository is something else. There such file is not included and needs to be downloaded at the installation time. The Git repo is not a PHP release file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
