4.0.6 did the same thing, only that 4.1.1's requirement
is for libtool 1.4.  By changing that in the script, you
could possibly cause an improper build.  Libtool 1.4 is
required for a REASON. Not just for the hell of it ;)

YOU ARE REBUILDING ./configure FROM SCRATCH.  Just as if
you were to check out from CVS.  I fail to see what you're
not quite understanding about that ....
The buildconf script is perfect as is.

Yes, I was adding a couple of extensions I wrote for 4.0.6.
It might be, that I'm treating it as a CVS version. But I fail
to see why! I didn't do anything, that I didn't do with version
4.0.6 - and still it worked even though I only had libtool 1.3.3
installed. Which suggest to me, that the buildconf script needs
a little work - or alteration.

what was the purpose of running ext_skel and buildconf?
Of course if you need to recreate ./configure because
you added an extension, it would need libtool.  In effect,
you're treating it as a CVS version by rebuilding
./configure.....
If you did not add an extension, you should have never
run ext_skel or buildconf ... just ./configure ...

Hi!

I just tried to install/compile PHP-4.1.1 under Debian potato.
Did the ext-skel part without any trouble, but when I tried
the buildconf - I got an error message saying that I needed
libtool 1.4 to compile THE CVS version of PHP.
1. This wasn't a CVS checkout!
2. Libtool 1.4 is a tad difficult to install under the
stable Debian release...

However, I "solved" the problem by changing a "4" to "3" in
build/buildcheck.sh @ 74:40.
And everything seems to work OK!

As far as I can see the real problem is that the release I
downloaded seems to believe it's a CVS check out!

Regards
Thomas
