Reiner, you didn't not commit anything so don't use the quick fix
"Fixed in CVS". Also, there is no good reason to block the use of
PDFLIb 5 here, as it works fine, it just doesn't have a full
implementation. That is not a problem as it is the case for most other
bindings to libraries. I'm re-assigning this until the confiure check
is fixed.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change
will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at
http://snaps.php.net/.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

There is a wrapper that works with PDFlib 5 and PDFlib 6. You can find
this wrapper at pecl.php.net.

The wrapper included here supports the PDFlib 4 API and not more. It is
true, that it also would compile with PDFlib 5, but it does not support
PDFlib 5, as the new API's from PDFlib 5 are not implemented. 

This is the reason why configure strictly checks this.

Dear Friends,
    very happy to know that the bug has been fixed. But i have one
doubt. rjs has told "Configure now only allows to work with PDFlib up
to PDFlib 4". But for my little brain tells that PHP can work perfectly
upto PDFLib 5. Please kindly clarify. Thanks a lot in advance.
With Regards
Santhanam

Configure now only allows to work with PDFlib up to PDFlib 4, as newer
PDFlib versions need the code from the PDFlib PECL module.

I sucessfully compiled version 6 with 4.3.8.

here's what I did:

1) compiled pdflib with shared libs and installed. Added /usr/local/lib
to /etc/ld.so.conf and ran ldconfig.

2) I discovered that the version of GD from PHP was newer than the one
I had on my system, so I added --with-gd=/usr to tell PHP to use my
installed GD instead of its bundled version. 

3)I copied php_gd.h to /usr/include/php/ext/gd/ and gd.h to
/usr/include/php/ext/gd/libgd/.

4) typed pear install pdflib  (it downloaded the newest extension,
compiled, and installed.

5) added extension=pdf.so to php.ini

No need to recompile PHP.
