Hi there,
I'm not sure who to contact about the PHP4 port
(/usr/ports/lang/php4). The new version of Postgresql 7.1 uses a new
directory layout and moves a bunch of files around that are needed when you
compile Postgresql support into the PHP4 port. Here's the message from the
Postgresql port about the changes to their directory structure:
-----------------
* IMPORTANT UPGRADE NOTICE * IMPORTANT UPGRADE NOTICE *
The PostgreSQL port now obeys hier(7) by default, which means that it
installs into:
/usr/local/bin
/usr/local/lib
/usr/local/include/pgsql
You *must* move away your old installation from users' and
ldconfig(8)'s PATHs. If you rather install using the old-fashion
layout, cancel now and build the port with "make -DWITH_OLD_LAYOUT".
The pgsql user's home dir is /usr/local/pgsql by default, but can be
changed with for example chpass(1). Datadir defaults to ~pgsql/data,
but can be changed by modifying the ~pgsql/.profile script.
As always, you *must* dump existing databases before stopping and
removing your old postgresql, as part of the update. This is *NOT*
done by this port!
-----------------
One of the consequences of this are the during the compile of the PHP4, it
looks for the postgres.h file (for example) in
"/usr/local/include/pgsql". Obviously the compile will fail because
Postgresql 7.1 uses "/usr/local/pgsql/include/". Who do I contact to
rectify this? Is this port dependant or due to PHP itself?
