ID: 15788 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Compile Failure Operating System: Red Hat 6.0 (modified) PHP Version: 4.1.2 New Comment:
the faq is (was, after the recent checkin) wrong. /usr/include/linux should never be a symlink to kernel sources. this has been well-discussed on various linux mailing lists. if your system has symlinks from /usr/include to the kernel source tree, it is broken. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-28 13:03:36] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yes, I know this bug was marked "bogus" before. And I know the FAQ says to make sure your symlink is right. But with the symlink set right, using kernel 2.4.16 (built from the tar), compilation chokes on this. This is not a good thing when you have a bunch of people trying to upgrade because of the security issue. (The symlink: /usr/include# ls -l linux lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 May 2 2001 linux -> ../src/linux/include/linux/) This is using gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release), also built from tar. Tried building the most recent version of glibc, but installing that was a serious mistake - breaking gcc among other things (if you make that mistake and have to revert to backup, be sure to restore or rebuild ld.so.cache first, without including it's files in /usr/local/include in ld.so.conf). Please let me suggest that the PHP team would better always check against compiles of recent kernels. On further attempt, the fix mentioned in the comments in the FAQ, of commenting lines in microtime.c as follows: /* #ifdef HAVE_SYS_RESOURCE_H */ #include <sys/resource.h> /* #endif */ does work (although I've also reverted to gcc-2.7.2.3 since the glibc fiasco still has an afteraffect). So this is a bug in PHP, not in the user's system (unless you want to argue that kernel 2.4.16 has a bug here). Please fix it. And please correct the FAQ build section to remove the bogus advice that the user's symlinks or glibc version are what needs to be fixed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15788&edit=1
