From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: PHP version: 4CVS-2003-12-12 (stable) PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: In --with-XXX-dir[=DIR], DIR is undocumented
Description: ------------ For most of the configure options that take a DIR argument, there's no definition what that DIR is. It might be obvious for people who know about configure, but other people seem to use --with-XXX-dir=/usr/include or --with-XXX-dir=/usr/lib quite often. "Install directory" could even mean the source directory from which the extension was installed. Expected result: ---------------- Perhaps a sentence like "'install directory' (DIR) below is the directory that contains an include and lib directory. So use e.g. --with-EXTENSION=/opt/extension and _not_ --with-EXTENSION=/opt/extension/lib." in the output of "configure --help" and/or on http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.configure.php would be helpful. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26609&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26609&r=float
