Subject:  Compile PHP 5.2.5 Under Fedora 8


I am unable to get the configure script to complete on my Fedora 8 x86_64
install. The configure command I am using is

./configure --program-prefix= --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr
--bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --datadir=/usr/share
--includedir=/usr/include --libdir=/usr/lib --libexecdir=/usr/libexec

--with-pdo-dblib=/usr/local/freetds --enable-zip --with-fastcgi
--enable-discard-path --enable-force-cgi-redirect

The script bombs out with:

Configuring extensions
checking whether to enable LIBXML support... yes
checking libxml2 install dir... /usr/include/libxml2
checking for xml2-config path... /usr/bin/xml2-config
checking whether libxml build works... no
configure: error: build test failed.  Please check the config.log for
details.

Config.log shows the following in the last few lines.

configure:19793: checking whether to enable LIBXML support
configure:19841: checking libxml2 install dir
configure:19870: checking for xml2-config path
configure:20028: checking whether libxml build works
configure:20055: gcc -o conftest -g -O2   conftest.c

   char xmlInitParser();
   int main() {
     xmlInitParser();
     return 0;
   }

Does anyone have any ideas how to make this thing work? I have checked my
paths 100 times and libxml2 along with its course code is indeed installed
on the system.

Thanks!
