Hi Anthony, I know this isn't the answer to your question but I would recommend you "upgrade" to Roundcube webmail instead of downgrading php to support SquirrelMail.

[gentoo-user] PHP4?
Hi all, I have just installed SquirrelMail, and found that parts of it are not working. The version of PHP that is installed is 5.1.2. Searching the sqirrelmail website, it appears that squirrelmail doesn't work with php5. So, how do I downgrade PHP to version 4.1.4 (which seems to be the recommended version).

You're likely vulnerable at this moment. So the question is what do I put in /etc/portage/? file to get the system to accept the older dev-php files and not try to install 'dev-lang/php' ? You don't. You remove dev-php and install dev-lang/php when you have some time to deal with change. I had no issues moving from dev-php to dev-lang/php with 4.4.x and the whole thing took about 30 minutes. Didn't even have downtime as Apache had the old module cached until I stopped and started to pick up the new build. However PHP USE flags have gotten a bit more complex. You'll want apache (or apache2), cli for the php commandline binary, and session at minimum plus anything else you might need. kashani -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Php 4 and php 5 is in dev-lang/php-XXX. dev-lang will also build your apache module for you. I made the same mistake at first. I installed mod_php, though I wanted php5 and couldn't get it to install with mod_php. Once I instlled dev-lang/php everything worked out.

[gentoo-user] php4 vs php5
Hello, I've installed php4 as needed by a package (JFFNMS). Everytime I run a 'emerge -uDp world' It wants to upgrade the php4 to either php5 or another form of php4. This gets a little confusing, so I'll try to be very clear. I do not have php5 installed, and I do not want php5 installed on this system. I've tried all sorts of machinations in the /etc/portage dir, without success. Here's what I have installed: dev-lang/php Available versions: 4.3.11-r5 4.4.1-r3 ~4.4.2 [M]5.0.5-r5 [M]5.1.2 Installed: none dev-php/mod_php Installed: 4.4.0-r9 dev-php/php Installed: 4.4.0-r4 So I've tried various entries in my /etc/portage/package.mask file to get the system happy. package.mask contains: '>=dev-lang/php-5.0.5' Focusing on php, I run 'emerge -pv dev-lang/php' and here is the response. These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

[gentoo-user] PHP4+Apache2+pdflib b0rken again?
Hi all, I'm geting tired of my php support being broken by emerge world! This time it is a libpdf or whatever. Reemerging php does not work again! I had to add -libpfd in USE flags to get my system up and running. Thank god this is not a production server! -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
