Greg Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-09-01 09:34:09] mk362 at mch dot osram dot de Hi, since there's no response up to now, I'd recommend to modify Guess.php:line 179 from --- if (!($major && $minor) && file_exists('/lib/libc.so.6')) --- to --- if (!($major && $minor) && is_link('/lib/libc.so.6')) --- to prevent that the program creates problems in case the lib is not symbolically linked. Marko ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-28 04:25:46] mk362 at mch dot osram dot de Status is still OPEN. Marko ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-28 04:23:00] mk362 at mch dot osram dot de Hi Nohn, did you do the test case from the "reproduce code" section? Even with an upgraded PEAR you will produce this error, since that code wasn't changed at all. Marko ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-24 12:38:16] nohn@php.net Hmmm... After upgrading to PEAR 1.2.1 by hand everything works fine. So this already seems to be closed. Verified this on another SuSE-Machine (SuSE 7.3) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-24 12:16:50] cellog@php.net I don't have SuSE linux. nohn,do you have enough knowhow to provide a patch for this? I can't be sure that anything I would do fixes this. If not, just assign it back to me. I can commit a patch you provide.
