#23089 [Bgs->Opn]: Compiling with aspell 0.50.3 fails

ID: 23089 User updated by: dswhite42 at yahoo dot com Reported By: dswhite42 at yahoo dot com -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: Compile Failure Operating System: SunOS 5.8 PHP Version: 4.3.1 New Comment: No it isn't. The aspell libs/includes are installed under /usr/local, my PHP configure command included "--with-pspell=/usr/local", and crle (I'm on Solaris) is set to look in /usr/local for both ELF and AOUT objects. Setting $LD_LIBRARY_PATH to "/usr/local/lib" (just to be sure) has no positive effect. So the problem does not appear to be my environment. And as I mentioned, adding "-laspell" to the $LIBS seems to fix the problem. Make of that what you will, but please take another look. Thanks.

At that point I get multiple errors such as: Undefined first referenced symbol in file aspell_speller_store_replacement ext/pspell/pspell.lo aspell_speller_add_to_session ext/pspell/pspell.lo delete_aspell_speller ext/pspell/pspell.lo ... etc. It appears that the problem is that PHP is including the pspell library but not the newer aspell library, where all those symbols can be found. The solution that worked for me was to edit the "configure" script, find the section where "-lpspell" is prepended to the $LIBS variables, and add "-laspell" as well. e.g. on line 62147 for PHP 4.3.1's "configure file", change: LIBS="-lpspell $LIBS" to LIBS="-laspell -lpspell $LIBS" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23089&edit=1
