#27357 [Opn->Csd]: Configure reports zlib version wrong when iconv missing

ID: 27357 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: work at zguy dot com -Status: Open +Status: Closed Bug Type: *Configuration Issues Operating System: Solaris 8 PHP Version: 5.0.0b4 (beta4) New Comment: The missing iconv library comes from libxml2 setup. Try this: # xml2-config --libs I added build test into configure for libxml2 stuff to catch the error earlier. (the missing libiconv is not our problem but problem in your system..)

No output written to conftest collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Expected result: ---------------- It would be nicer if it checked for iconv and reported it missing rather than complaining about the zlib version. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27357&edit=1
