So, how do I downgrade PHP to version 4.1.4 (which seems to be the
recommended version).



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. Aside from the fact that I personally like
RoundCube it also runs just swell with PHP 5.1

Don't worry - I have found the appropriate packages.

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

So, how do I downgrade PHP to version 4.1.4 (which seems to be the

dev-php is on it's way out and has not been updated in some time. 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.

If you are going to change from the old-style PHP (dev-php/php) to the
new-style PHP (dev-lang/php), then you need to follow the PHP upgrading
instructions on this page:

http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/php/php-upgrading.xml

I highly suggest it, as IIRC the old-style PHP is no longer supported.

You want to remove dev-php/mod_php and dev-php/php.  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.  Just do and emerge
-pv first to make sure you have all the use flags you want.

[gentoo-user] php4 vs php5

2006-03-14 Thread James
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!
[blocks B ] dev-php/mod_php (is blocking dev-lang/php-4.4.2)
[blocks B ] dev-php/php (is blocking dev-lang/php-4.4.2)
[ebuild  N] dev-lang/php-4.4.2 

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' ?

I cannot just install 'dev-lang/php' as it is blocked by the (2)
dev-php files that I need:
dev-php/mod_php and dev-php/php. Of coarse, take what I'm saying 
with a grain of salt, as I'm describing the symptoms of a php
problem without fully understandings what these package name/group
changes really mean...(where does one read about what the developers
are doing with php and why?). 
jffnms is the critical package here that is causing the php heartburn.

Everythings works, I just want the system to quit asking to upgrade
php, everytime I upgrade the rest of the system.

ideas?  What did I miss?

   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
