#20926 [Com]: libmcrypt error in configure

ID: 20926 Comment by: mdff@a1.net Reported By: fn@panix.com Status: Open Bug Type: mcrypt related Operating System: NetBSD-1.5.2 PHP Version: 4.3.0RC2 New Comment: hi guys, as told in bug 21936, i have similar problems with php-4.3.0 release (NOT an RC!) and libmcrypt-2.5.6. in this case, i do not see the solution. plz help to configure & compile, br, md. ps: sorry, this comment post went to the wrong bug before... don't know how that happened... obv. my fault ;-) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-02 18:45:22] sniper@php.net No feedback was provided.

Thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-11 13:10:22] derick@php.net hmm, :-) Patching configure is of little use, it's generated from config.m4 files. It would be nice if you could try to fix ext/mcrypt/config.m4, but I doubt it's possible. After you modify config.m4's dont forget to rm configure && ./buildconf It works all fine here, so I cant really help you.

The lt_dl approach has never worked nicely - especially on BSD's and Derick is right, that the prefix does matter, even with --with-pic (use make DESTDIR=/pkg/libmcrypt-2.5.3 install for what I think you wanna do). The more recent versions, allow you to link in the encryptions in the shared lib, which is the approach I would recommend. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
