ID: 20769 Updated by: derick@php.net Reported By: robert.penz@outertech.com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Regexps related Operating System: linux debian-woody PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: That configure option doesn't exist; in case you mean --with-regex=system, read ./configure --help: --with-regex=TYPE regex library type: system, apache, php. Default: php WARNING: Do NOT use unless you know what you are doing! You should not touch this unless you know what you're doing, and my guess is that you have clue what this is for.
