Summary: provide --with-libzip-dir configure option to allow
usage of system's libzip
Status: Bogus

It doesn't look like 0.10 will work with PHP's zip extension out of the
tarball, because it is still missing some necessary features that were never
upstreamed (as far as I can tell). I've worked up a patch against 0.10 that
adds the necessary functionality, and sent a copy to the libzip upstream for
consideration. A copy of that patch can be found here:
http://spot.fedorapeople.org/libzip-0.10-php-changes.patch
Then, I reworked ext/zip/config.m4 to enable an option to use libzip (the
system copy). That patch is here:
http://spot.fedorapeople.org/php-5.3.6-libzip.patch
I couldn't figure out a good way to test for overwrite support (the bits that
the first patch add), so the configure tests will pass on a system libzip
without the php changes applied, but I don't think the compile will succeed (it
definitely won't work properly).

With the recent security flaws related to libzip it's desirable to enable this
option. Isn't the latest http://www.nih.at/libzip/libzip-0.10.tar.bz2 going to
work fine now?

There is no need of it. And no, you should *really* not use an external library.
The version bundled have more fixes and features than the released lib. Most of
them are already in the libzip cvs, other not.

Description:
------------
Currently there is no --with-libzip-dir to easily allow distributions to use
independantly packaged system libraries.
Reproduce code:
---------------
./configure --help | grep zip
Expected result:
----------------
--enable-zip Include Zip read/write support.
--with-zlib-dir=DIR zip: Set the path to libz install prefix.
--with-libzip=DIR zip : path to libzip sources if not using the bundled
library.
Actual result:
--------------
--enable-zip Include Zip read/write support.
--with-zlib-dir=DIR zip: Set the path to libz install prefix.
