From: b dot mosher at podshow dot com Operating system: CentOS 4 PHP version: 5.2.3 PHP Bug Type: Compile Warning Bug description: Buildconf warns about wrong version of autoconf
Description: ------------ When running buildconf on the 5.2.3 release sources, it complains that I'm not using autoconf 2.13. I am using 2.59 which shouldn't trigger the warning from what I can gather in the OK message right before the warning. The warning advises downgrading autoconf severely. If autoconf truly is using buggy cache code in 2.59, please advise. However this warning has been generated since at least PHP 4.3x (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=34328 and http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=33922&edit=2 which don't hve satisfactory solutions for the spurious warning) Reproduce code: --------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/php-5.2.3]$ ./buildconf --force Forcing buildconf using default Zend directory buildconf: checking installation... buildconf: autoconf version 2.59 (ok) buildconf: Your version of autoconf likely contains buggy cache code. Running cvsclean for you. To avoid this, install autoconf-2.13. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/php-5.2.3] Expected result: ---------------- "buildconf: autoconf version 2.59 (ok)" should be the last message.
