Hi, I tried to compile php-5.2.1 or php-5.2.3 on a redhat host, but kept getting errors about: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lkstat

Either you need it and don't have it installed or the libkstat library isn't in the linkers search path.

Please let me know how to fix this. Thanks,

If you don't have a '--with-snmp=/some-path' in your configure options it shouldn't be trying to enable the snmp extension which is AFAIK, the only extension that requires it. For it to be added it has to have the --with-snmp' option set and it also has to pass a sanity check as taken from ext/snmp/config.m4 file: AC_CHECK_LIB(kstat, kstat_read, [ PHP_ADD_LIBRARY(kstat,,SNMP_SHARED_LIBADD) ]) So there's little chance it got there by itself. Try adding '--with-snmp=no' if you don't need it or install the missing library.

-j # more debug.log './configure' '--prefix=/opt/php/5.2.1'
