Rebuilding the PHP packages

[cdean]

For an application on which I'm working, I need to recompile PHP with full GD support. Apparently, so sayeth a co-dev, the Ubuntu php5-gd package lacks the full functionality of GD. Also, I need to have Fileinfo installed, so I figure I might as well compile it in with PHP.

So, I'd like to recreate the php-related deb packages.

I downloaded the sources for the Intrepid version of PHP. Its dependencies are sufficiently satisfied by the versions of stuff in Hardy, so there shouldn't be a problem there.

I've also installed all of the dependencies for all of the extensions.

I'm using Prevu to handle the build process.

I've edited the debian/rules file to add the configure options required, as well as edited the debian/control file to add the new dependencies.

I think the error is occurring when Prevu is building the deb files.

Prevu Error: Build failed.
Prevu encountered an error performing your build. The actual
error message may be further up in the scrollback before pbuilder
exited. Please look for a failed dependency or compile error in
the full output.

This is my first attempt at building a package with Prevu, so I'm not quite sure what I might be doing wrong.

Why don't you try building the package manually with dpkg-deb? It's easy, as outlined in this post: http://www.compdigitec.com/labs/2008/07/28/building-deb-packages-on-ubuntudebian/

I'd simply do make install before I'd take the time to make my own package for this case. I gotta have this done today.

I've verified that the problem is in the debian/rules install section. Those extensions are not in the 20060613+lfs directory.

I'm going to try, however, using dpkg-build instead of calling debian/rules manually and see what happens. If worse comes to worse, I'll just use checkinstall.

Edit:dpkg-build isn't going to work because the php5 source package appears to be non-standard (debian instead of DEBIAN, control syntax is different, etc.). I'm getting all kinds of errors and don't want to muck through them right now.
