I was setting up a brand new server yesterday running Cent OS 6.4 and had the need to install PSLib (PostScript) for PHP.
The initial setup commands all worked as expected:
cd /src #A good directory to install stuff in. You may need to create it first
#Install intltool (required for pslib)
yum install intltool
#Install pslib
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/pslib/files/latest/download?source=files
tar -xzvf pslib-*.tar.gz
cd pslib-*
./configure
make
make install
cd ..
#Install pslib wrapper for php
pecl download ps
tar -xzvf ps-*.tgz
cd ps-*
phpize
./configure
make
At this point, the make failed with
/src/ps-1.3.6/ps.c:58: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘ps_functions’
After a little bit of browsing the code and a really lucky first guess, I found that changing the following fixed the problem:
In
ps.c change: “
function_entry ps_functions[] = {” to “
zend_function_entry ps_functions[] = {”
Then to finish the install, just run:
make
make install
and you’re done!
