#46768 [Opn]: docs say use --enable-yp but it is an unknown configure option

ID: 46768 Updated by: philip@php.net Reported By: jistanidiot at gmail dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: RHEL 4 PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Good point. It's unknown because this extension was "moved to PECL" although since it lacks a release there it's a little more difficult to explain how to install. The extension appears quite dead too (and is labeled as unmaintained): http://pecl.php.net/package/yp However, it's in CVS: http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/pecl/yp/ So please test if it works for you via the PECL install instructions: http://docs.php.net/install.pecl And here's a 2006 request to release a package for it: http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=9247 Regardless, the documentation needs up updating.

Reproduce code: --------------- ./configure --enable-yp Expected result: ---------------- that configure enables the yp functions. Actual result: -------------- configure says it is an unknown option. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46768&edit=1
