merge php problem: cracklib

[pmeleard]

I try to emerge php_4.3.9 .
I successfully emerge cracklib-2.7-r9.
But emerging php occurs with error: "cannot find cracklib library file"

Thancks for help ....

[sism82]

hi. hum, i really dont see the dependence between cracklib and mod_php4. I have mod_php-5.0.2 and it works fine. Why dont you try mod_php-4.3.9_rc1?? could you put here the exact commands that you are executing, and more about the error??

[pmeleard]

Well, php mod_php-4.3.9_rc1 is not stable ....
Here are status with PHP:

Code: Select all

emerge -pv php

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Thanks for your help.

[Gregor Kopka]

There is a Bug filed for this.

A Workaround is to downgrade the cracklib:

Code: Select all

emerge =cracklib-2.7-r8

PHP 4.3.9 will emerge then.

You could then also

Code: Select all

emerge --inject  sys-apps/cracklib-2.7-r9

to prevent it from reappearing during emerge system/world.

Gregor

[pmeleard]

Thanks for your answer, i am going to test your solution.

[richard.scott]

I'd like to add the following as the latest version of portage no longer likes the --inject option.

Instead you'll have to do the following:

Code: Select all

echo "=sys-libs/cracklib-2.7-r9" >> /etc/portage/package.mask

This should mask only the cracklib-2.7-r9 release.

[yaneurabeya]

I finally just said screw it and decided to build a binary on my p4 since that worked. Stupid stages on 2004.3 are really forked up methinks >.<...

[fastonion]

I have the same trouble when i try rebuild mod_php. I fix it and i does this steps:

emerge =sys-libs/cracklib-2.7-r10
echo "=sys-libs/cracklib-2.7-r10" >> /etc/portage/package.mask
USE="-X -freetds mssql" emerge -v mod_php

Here my curren use flags for mod_php:

Code: Select all

dev-php/mod_php-4.3.10  -X +apache2 +berkdb +crypt +curl -debug +doc -fdftk -firebird -flash -freetds +gd -gd-external +gdbm -gmp -hardenedphp +imap -informix -ipv6 +java +jpeg +kerberos +ldap +mcal* -memlimit +mssql +mysql +nls -oci8 +odbc +pam +pdflib +png +postgres +qt +snmp +spell +ssl +tiff +truetype +xml2 +yaz 0 kB

And to increase the performance to php i suggest install turck-mmcache http://turck-mmcache.sourceforge.net/ open source PHP accelerator, optimizer, encoder and dynamic content cache.

Code: Select all

emerge -v dev-php/turck-mmcache

[RayDude]

Forget what I said before.

After a great deal of work I got php-5 running with mod_php-5 (have to remove that /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask entry).

Then you MUST /etc/init.d/apache2 stop and /etc/init.d/apache2 start (RESTART DOES NOT WORK)

jeez, what a pita.

[yamakawa]

I have this error instead......

Code: Select all

checking for cpdflib support... no
checking for CRACKlib support... yes
configure: error: Cannot find the cracklib header file

My workaround is.....

Code: Select all

# emerge =cracklib-2.7-r10
# cp /usr/include/packer.h /usr/include/packer.h.org
# emerge cracklib
# cp /usr/include/packer.h.org /usr/include/packer.h
# emerge -u mod_php

Now I am crossfingering.....

See: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83689

[Mayday]

This is happening with php5 as well. The problem is with the cracklib ebuild, not the php one.

[safeness]

I'm going to try yamakawa's method and see if that works. I'm sure downgrading works but I do like to have the latest versions of packages when I can.

UPDATE: mod_php emerged nicely and everything seems to be in order. Thanks yamakawa!

[Sabishii-ookami]

I tried Yamakawa's method too, it's working fine Even with php5 (I upgraded afterward).

Thanks

[cvstealth]

I also had problems compiling php 4.3.10 and downgrading cracklib back to 2.7 fixed the problem, for anyone having similar issues.

Thx

[Pasha]

I've emerged the cracklib 2.8.2 and was trying to emerge mod_php. Now I get an error like this:

What can I do except downgrading? And, actually, why does the latest PHP in the repository have version 4, but not 5?

And when will it be fixed so that I can normally emerge the soft rather than using various workarounds?

Thanks

[gcasillo]

Downgrading cracklib worked for me.

[bulazs]

Ooohhh....jeeeeezzz.. I'm trying to downgrade the cracklib ebuild, to be able to merge mod_php, and i keep getting the following:

Code: Select all

emerge =cracklib-2.7-r10
Calculating dependencies
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=cracklib-2.7-r10".

bulazs bulazs # emerge =sys-libs/cracklib-2.7-r10
Calculating dependencies
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=sys-libs/cracklib-2.7-r10".

Why is that? I am using the testing branch, and did "emerge --sync" this afternoon...
Please help! Thanx!

[Maedhros]

I simply masked cracklib 2.8.2 - that stops it being installed when you next update world. If you don't want to do that, cracklib-2.7-r10 has disappeared, but cracklib-2.7-r11 should work.

[bulazs]

Ohh.. That is working! What a fool i am.. I just tried the older ones... Thanks!
Now let's see what happens

Code: Select all

bulazs bulazs # emerge -pv =sys-libs/cracklib-2.7-r11

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] sys-apps/miscfiles-1.4.2  -minimal 0 kB
[ebuild     UD] sys-libs/cracklib-2.7-r11 [2.8.2] -debug -minimal +pam 20 kB

I hope, after that, i will be able to merge mod_php....

[bulazs]

Oh jeah!!
I have successfully emerged mod_php, and php, and now everything is OK!
Thanks everybody!!

My steps:

Code: Select all

# echo "=sys-libs/cracklib-2.8.2" >> /etc/portage/package.mask
# emerge -pu cracklib  

Thanks again!

[MasterC]

So since cracklib 2.8.3 is out, does it fix this?

I guess I'll let you all know....

Cool

[MasterC]

Nope...

/etc/portage/package.mask now contains:
>=sys-libs/cracklib-2.8.2

And now mod_php is successfully emerged...

Weak.

tryied with php5 too ..
curently have cracklib-2.7-r11

=sys-libs/cracklib-2.8.3-r1

=sys-libs/cracklib-2.8.3

can anyone tell me the exact steps that i need in this moment ?
thanks
