PHP 4.0 Bug #7210: libpng not properly detected

From: mlong@infoave.net Operating system: tru64 5.0 (OSF/digital unix) PHP version: 4.0.3 PHP Bug Type: Compile Failure Bug description: libpng not properly detected This is a problem with libpng but until it is changed you might want to make PHP aware of this issue and to compensate accordingly. Under Tru64 UNIX (Digital UNIX/OSF) there is a slight problem in it finding the libpng library. The solution is this: cp /usr/local/lib/libpng.so.2.1.0.8 /usr/local/lib/libpng.so You might want to put this in the make install since it could easily throw off someone and take a while for them to figure out. The particular problem I was running into was compiling apache which included php4 which included gd which included libpng: at-lite/libexpat.a -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib -Lmodules/php4 - L../modules/php4 -L../../modules/php4 -lmodphp4 -lpng -lz -lgd -lresolv -lm - lresolv -lm ld: Unresolved: png_set_sig_bytes png_check_sig png_create_read_struct png_create_write_struct png_create_info_struct png_write_info png_read_info png_set_strip_alpha png_set_packing png_set_strip_16 png_set_dither png_read_update_info png_read_image png_write_image png_write_end png_read_end png_destroy_read_struct png_destroy_write_struct png_get_error_ptr png_set_write_fn png_set_read_fn png_get_io_ptr png_get_valid png_get_rowbytes png_get_IHDR png_set_IHDR png_get_PLTE png_set_PLTE png_get_tRNS png_set_tRNS *** Exit 1 Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop. *** Exit 1 Stop. -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=7210&edit=1
