hi, peter,

thanks.. okay, i did this (command is now 'rpmbuild', apparently, and also, it was a PITA because i had to go out and get tons of *-devel* rpms which were needed .. about 38 new packages.. which all started with needing httpd-devel, because it could not find httpd-mmn (see php.spec), and gave a non-helpful cryptic error.. then the other dependent packages.. UGH!)

okay, so i added "--with-interbase=/opt/interbase" to the php.spec

the RPMS compiled. but now when i try to install them, it says,

error: Failed dependencies:
libgds.so is needed by php-4.2.2-8.0.7

but /usr/lib/libgds.so *is* on my system! it is a softlink to /usr/lib/libgds.so.0 , which got installed with the InterBaseC_LI-V7.0.0-1.i386.rpm rpm from the Interbase trial download. (this is the same Interbase rpm i used to compile the php)! so it's there!

maybe it doesn't see it because the softlink itself was not officially part of the InterBaseC_LI package, but was instead created with a post-install script? dunno.. just a thought..

i try using --force , but it doesn't force it.. still same error.

do you have any ideas? did you get this error? how does one get around it?

thanks
