Hello, When I run portupgrade -ra and PHP needs upgrading I am faced with having to select all the options I want PHP compiled with (again). I hate this. How can I continually compile PHP with the same options as the last time? Thanks! Rick

Check out /usr/ports/lang/php4/Makefile and you'll see different ways to deal with this problem. My Makefile is v 1.32 from 2003/10/13 05:59:45 and has all the scoop on how to avoid this problem. -- Mark Nipper e-contacts: Computing and Information Services nipsy@tamu.edu Texas A&M University http://ops.tamu.edu/nipsy/ College Station, TX 77843-3142 AIM/Yahoo: texasnipsy ICQ: 66971617 (979)575-3193 MSN: nipsy@tamu.edu -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- GG/IT d- s++:+ a- C++$ UBL+++$ P--->+++ L+++$ E--- W++ N+ o K++ w(---) O++ M V(--) PS+++(+) PE(--) Y+ PGP++(+) t 5 X R tv b+++ DI+(++) D+ G e h r++ y+(**) ------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------ ---begin random quote of the moment--- "We are not enemies, but friends.

Except that the next time you upgrade your ports tree, your changes will be overwritten. Check out the /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf file. This is how you can use your own make(1) options using portupgrade consistently. The options you can use for each port can be found in its respective Makefile. Cheers - Erick

Or, if the port is set up to respect Makefile.local, put the PHP4_OPTIONS?= according to your needs. in there. Not all ports seem to get this right though, so check it before you trust it. g.
You can put compilations options (variables) into /etc/make.conf.
I use /etc/make.conf without problems, conditionally within
.if ${.CURDIR:N*/ports/______} == ""
.endif
/etc/make.conf is used by make before any other system makefile.

There's a much better way to manage this port. Recent versions of lang/php4 read their configuration from /root/php4-options. Here's an excerpt from mine: WITH_BCMATH=ON WITH_BZIP2=ON WITH_CURL=ON WITH_GD=ON WITH_GETTEXT=ON WITH_ICONV=ON WITH_IMAP=ON WITH_MCAL=ON When you begin the build, the port uses the contents of that file to set the default menu options. Configure it once, note the choices you made in that file, and you're done. Easy, huh? At one point, the exact name of the options file was in flux, so I nailed it down by setting: PHP4_OPTFILE= /root/php4_options in /etc/make.conf. This seems to be unnecessary now. -- Kirk Strauser "94 outdated ports on the box, 94 outdated ports.

portupgrade and PHP solved! (was Re: portupgrade and PHP)
