Hello, While building PHP for BLFS, I noticed that one of the "Command Explanations" is out of date. --with-mysql is referenced both on the page and in the php_configure.txt file.
Support for the old MySQL extension was dropped in PHP 7.0, with mysqli or PDO recommended as replacements. Upstream commit: *** From fd1578c196575c7e120a84ee030bb87c14a199b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adam Harvey <[email protected]> Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2015 00:18:40 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Remove the deprecated MySQL extension. Relevant RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/remove_deprecated_functionality_in_php7 *** Configuring using the "--with-mysql" switch results in an error.
