On our Mac OS X (Darwin) server, I used to compile php with some twists and tricks, but 4.2.3 configured and compiled correctly width mcrypt enabled. Now I can't configure 4.3.0 with libmcrypt enabled.

Configure line :

./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \
--with-mysql \
--with-fbsql \
--with-xml \
--enable-ftp \
--with-zlib \
--with-zlib-dir=../zlib \
--with-png \
--with-png-dir=../libpng-1.2.0 \
--with-jpeg \
--with-jpeg-dir=../jpeg-6b \
--with-gd \
--with-mcrypt \
--enable-track-vars \
--enable-trans-id

I get :

checking for mcrypt support... yes
checking for mcrypt_module_open in -lmcrypt... no
checking for init_mcrypt in -lmcrypt... no
configure: error: Sorry, I was not able to diagnose which libmcrypt version you have installed.

Here's the tail of config.log
char init_mcrypt();

int main() {
init_mcrypt()
; return 0; }

This configure line works perfectly without the mcrypt part, and results in a working php installation.

libmcrypt 2.5.5 is install in /usr/local and other php version (4.2.3) configure and compile againts it successfully.

I tried every combinaison of

--with-mcrypt=../libmcrypt-2.5.5
--with-mcrypt=/usr/local

and so on.

So any hints ?

It works in deed. But I had to remove all gd/png/jpeg/zlib stuff because of configure errors regarding png or zlib.

Is there a way to back-port the fix to distro php-4.3.0 ?

Copy ext/mcrypt/config.m4 to the php-4.2.3 directory (in ext/mcrypt), go to the php-4.2.3 directory and execute:
rm configure
rm config.cache
./buildconf

(and make sure you have autoconf 2.13)

then you can run configure with the options of your liking.

Just a quick note, I took the config.m4 from ext/mcrypt/ of 4.2.3 and copied it into 4.3.0 tree, ran buildconf and now I get :

/usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
_mcrypt_module_entry
/usr/bin/ld: warning unused multiple definitions of symbol _regerror
/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd definition of _regerror
/usr/lib/libm.dylib(regerror.o) unused definition of _regerror
make: *** [libs/libphp4.bundle] Error 1

And that even with all gd/tiff/png removed...

I'm actually seeing a similar problem on FreeBSD... there's a lot of documentation on it, but none of it is really working.  With --with-java, the configure breaks.  I've tried modifying the configure (as well as creating a new one from a copied .m4 ...).  None of the above 'solutions' worked.  When I remove --with-java, the mcrypt issue disappears.

checking for mcrypt support... yes
checking for mcrypt_module_open in -lmcrypt... no
checking for init_mcrypt in -lmcrypt... no
configure: error: Sorry, I was not able to diagnose which libmcrypt version you have installed.

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide.

Okay.. I figured it out.. looks like the java dist wasn't working and was causing the config to fail on mcrypt.  config.log revealed my mistakes.

Thanks.
