           Summary: php-5.2.0-r2 does not build on Gentoo
           Product: Openembedded
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Build
        AssignedTo: openembedded-issues at lists.openembedded.org
        ReportedBy: treitmayr at devbase.at
                CC: treitmayr at devbase.at


Building php_5.2.0.bb on my Gentoo system (32-bit) fails in the configure task
with the following error:

/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries:
/home/nslu2/slugos/tmp/staging/armeb-linux/usr/lib/libncurses.so.5: ELF file
data encoding not little-endian

The reason seems to be that the recipe sets an LD_LIBRARY_PATH like this:
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "${STAGING_LIBDIR}"
pointing to the big-endian libraries.

Commenting out this line get you a bit further until the configure script tries
to find and run 'libxml2-config'. In the php recipe the path to the configure
script is specified by the parameter
  --with-libxml-dir=${STAGING_BINDIR}
However at that location this script cannot be found resulting in an error:
checking for xml2-config path...
/home/nslu2/slugos/tmp/staging/armeb-linux/usr/lib/xml2-config
configure: error: xml2-config not found. Please check your libxml2
installation.
FATAL: oe_runconf failed

Tracing this back a bit further shows that the libxml2.inc file installs the
xml2-config script to ${STAGING_BINDIR_CROSS} which is different to where the
php recipe specified it to be.
Adding the following line to libxml2.inc (in do_stage) also fixed that problem:
  install -m 0755 xml2-config ${STAGING_BINDIR}

Can someone please review this and also find out why xml2-config should be
installed to ${STAGING_BINDIR_CROSS} (maybe libxml2-native does not install its
config script?) ?

Thanks,
-Thomas
