Bug #12472: cannot install pear

From: sybex@hotmail.com Operating system: Slackware Linux 8.0 / 2.4.7 PHP version: 4.0.6 PHP Bug Type: *Compile Issues Bug description: cannot install pear doing a 'make install' dies when attempting to install pear. configure options: --with-gettext --enable-sysvshm --enable-sysvsem --with-apxs --enable-ftp --with-mcrypt --with-mcal --with-imap --with-pear Everything compiles and installs fine without the --with-pear option, but adding it causes the following: ...snip... make[1]: Leaving directory '/root/php-4.0.6' Making install in pear make[1]: Entering directory '/root/php-4.0.6/pear' make[2]: Entering directory '/root/php-4.0.6/pear' shtool:mkdir:Error: invalid number of arguments (at least 1 expected) shtool:mkdir:Hint: run '/root/php-4.0.6/build/shtool mkdir -h' or 'man shtool' for details ...endsnip... Any ideas? I have tried specifying a directory for pear, and also compiled the newest shtool and placed it in the build dir, but I know that isn't the problem.. -- Edit bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=12472&edit=1
