I need to add Sybase support to PHP. Following a couple different pages I found using Google, the process I used to modify the PHP rpm is as follows:
I created a user called "rpmbuild", with it's own home directory "/home/rpmbuild".
Everything has been done while logged in as the "rpmbuild" user.
I installed php-4.3.9-3.src.rpm using the command:
rpm -ivh --define '_topdir /home/rpmbuild/rpm' php-4.3.9-3.src.rpm
...which is successful.
I created the necessary directories with the command:
mkdir -p BUILD RPMS/i386 SRPMS
I then modified "rpm/SPECS/php.spec", adding the line "--with-sybase=/opt/sybase", inserting it between a couple other --with statements:
--with-kerberos \
--with-sybase=/opt/sybase
--with-ldap=shared \
--with-mysql=shared,%{_prefix} \
...basically, I just picked a spot. :)
I then attempt to rebuild the rpm using the command:
rpmbuild --define '_topdir /home/rpmbuild/rpm' -ba /home/rpmbuild/rpm/SPECS/php.spec
Eventually, it errors. The screen output is:
-----

The config.log shows:

I found this bugzilla result:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=131054
That appears to be related to my issue, if not it exactly. No fix, though, as I guess this was to be patched?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
