Description:
------------
fileinfo does not compile either using 'pecl install fileinfo' or manually downloading the package and trying to compile.

Always reports:

>"configure: error: wrong magic lib version or lib not found"
>correct magiclib from RPM is installed.

Despite the fact that magliclib and magiclib-devel are installed.

PHP version is 5.2.6.

In order to fix this error (which if you search google seems to be a common issue with many distributions) one must ... "edit config.m4 replace all [occurrences] of the pattern "/lib" with $PHP_LIBDIR."

I must credit Cristian "Elvigia" Rodriguez of the SuSE team for the solution.
