Sometimes it will work, sometimes not, but you basically get to support yourself there. Follow stable (OPENBSD_4_5) if you want to run stable, or run a snapshot OS if you want to run current. > I installed php5 using ports. > I realized that I forgot to include something in the compile options. There's more work to do than that. On OpenBSD (unlike some other OS with a superficially similar system) ports *always* produces a package first. "make install" pkg_add's it if appropriate. So the port has to be arranged correctly for this to work (correct packing lists, etc). > I went back to add it, and now it won't reinstall. > > I added "--enable-mbstring" to the compile flags in the make file. mbstring is in php5/extensions, the "php5-mbstring" package. You shouldn't hack the Makefiles for something like that.
