From: vapier at gentoo dot org Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.3.1 PHP Bug Type: *Compile Issues Bug description: incorrect usage of autoconf diversions
Description: ------------ autoconf-2.64+ has changed behavior with diversions in such a way that php breaks. the autoconf documentation has explained that using these functions with any diversion not explicitly documented is subject to breakage, and php is doing just that. http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Diversion-support you can also review the discussion on the autoconf lists: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2009-11/msg00045.html Reproduce code: --------------- the code can either be changed to stop using divert() completely (since it doesnt seem to accomplish anything), or increase the numbers used to something higher than 1000. Actual result: -------------- after regenerating autotools, we see: $ ./configure cat: confdefs.h: No such file or directory ./configure: line 410: ac_fn_c_try_run: command not found ./configure: line 426: 5: Bad file descriptor ./configure: line 427: 6: Bad file descriptor cat: confdefs.h: No such file or directory ./configure: line 466: ac_fn_c_try_run: command not found cat: confdefs.h: No such file or directory ........ -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50291&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50291&r=mysqlcfg
