 PHP on FreeBSD - Compiler Bugs and Option selection: 

Hi ale

I just wanted to check you had received OK the two compiler errors that I
reported for /usr/ports/lang/php5-extensions.

The first error was apparently caused by make expecting  libmagic in an
incorrect path for FreeBSD 5.3. Once a copy was placed in the correct path
compilation resumed.

I meant to say that full credit should be given to 
Kris Kennaway [EMAIL PROTECTED] who made the suggestion to 
copy /usr/src/contrib/file/magic.h to
/usr/include/magic.h 
and see if it works. Which it did.

The second error seems also to be caused by an inability to find requisite
files for wddx.
ext/xml/expat_compat.h
ext/xml/php

As a result of compiling php5 I began to wonder whether it  would be helpful
to users if :
drwxr-xr-x  3 root  wheel 512 May  2 07:06 php5-cli
drwxr-xr-x  3 root  wheel 512 Sep  9 18:00 php5-extensions
drwxr-xr-x  3 root  wheel 512 May 28 10:06 php_doc
were more integrated as choices within make for php5.

I would personally find it helpful if all the build options for php could be
in an editable file for sysadmins to define a repeatable unattended build
from all available build options. A closer integration of the subsidiary
 php5 ports into the php5 make would facilitate this process.

I do not not how welcome these proposals might be or how easy it would be to
make the changes but would be interested to know what others think.

Norberto Meijome [EMAIL PROTECTED] made a very interesting suggestion
 that he uses on his servers to achieve the above goal. He
uses /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf for that purpose but my preference would
 be to have a method that is particular to php and does not lead to an
overloading of /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf.

I have copied Norbeto's example below:

I also wonder why the Makefile, by default, uses the --disable-all option in
the Makefile with no option to remove it.
