I am trying to update my system, and it seemed like a good time to go from the old php ports to the dev-lang ports. But I'm having trouble building php-4.4.1-r3.
I have masked php-5 and up, as I'm not quite ready to move to that yet. When I try to emerge php-4.4.1-r3, it stops with this error: QA Notice: USE Flag 'nis' not in IUSE for dev-lang/php-4.4.1-r3 I get the same error with php-5.0.5. I don't have nis set as a use flag anywhere in my stuff, though, and I cannot find it set for php in the profiles. I have put "-nis" into package.use for php and I have tried removing nis and setting "-nis" into /etc/make.conf, but nothing helps. I don't find reference to this issue when I google, so that tells me that something might be misconfigured in my system. I try not to do anything too wild, so I'm not sure what it might be. If it makes a difference, I have copied my system into another partition and I have chrooted into it. This has worked fine for me in the past, though, so it doesn't seem that would be the problem. Any helpful advice would be appreciated. -- -M There are 10 kinds of people in this world: Those who can count in binary and those who cannot. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
