Re: Aspell 0.27.2 make problem

Arghh! aspell 0.27 + php4 = *BAD* IDEA. Did you read the note on the page from php manual you mentioned in your email? I quote: *Note: * aspell works only with very old (up to .27.* or so) versions of aspell library. Neither this module, nor those versions of aspell library are supported any longer. If you want to use spell-checking capabilities in php, use pspell <http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pspell.php> instead. It uses pspell library and works with newer versions of aspell. I do not think you will be able to get this version to even compile; it is not supported by the aspell author, and will not work with php4. Please, use pspell instead (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pspell.php). It is very similar, in fact, it uses newer versions of aspell, but better. If you still have problems, please ask.

Hello! I'm trying to compile the recommended version of aspell, 0.27.*, as said at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.aspell.php. ./configure runs without any problem, but when trying make I get this error: make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/rawtgzs/aspell-.27.2/lib'

(I'm not having any problem compiling 0.28.3 but then apache won't start. undefined symbol: aspell_free, so I guess I need 0.27.2) Thanks! Best regards, Joel Jacobson
