PHP 4.0 Bug #7635: PEAR directory and file names clash (FIX INCLUDED)

From: derek.slye@jpl.nasa.gov Operating system: Mac OS X PHP version: 4.0.3pl1 PHP Bug Type: Compile Failure Bug description: PEAR directory and file names clash (FIX INCLUDED) Mac OS X uses the HFS+ filesystem by default (can also use UFS). HFS+ is case-preserving but case- insensitive. This limitation causes a namespace conflict at compile time. As a result, the PEAR component won't compile, which leads to a general make failure. In the pear subdirectory, there is a source directory called PEAR. When make tries to create the file pear at the same level from pear.in, it can't because the name is already taken by the directory. My solution was to rename the PEAR directory and edit references to it in Makefile.in None of the other directories in pear seem to have this problem. -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=7635&edit=1
