[PLUG] gettext/php woes

["Jon Nelson" <quincy@linuxnotes.net>]

I am trying to get gettext working with php and I am not having any luck. 
php was installed via rpms on RH 7.3:

php-imap-4.1.2-7.3.6
php-4.1.2-7.3.6
php-ldap-4.1.2-7.3.6
php-pgsql-4.1.2-7.3.6
php-mysql-4.1.2-7.3.6

gettext was also:

gettext-0.11.1-2

phpinfo() shows the configure command to be:

'./configure' 'i386-redhat-linux' '--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' '--localstatedir=/var'
'--sharedstatedir=/usr/com' '--mandir=/usr/share/man'
'--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--prefix=/usr' '--with-config-file-path=/etc'
'--enable-force-cgi-redirect' '--disable-debug' '--enable-pic'
'--disable-rpath' '--enable-inline-optimization' '--with-bz2' '--with-db3'
'--with-curl' '--with-dom=/usr' '--with-exec-dir=/usr/bin'
'--with-freetype-dir=/usr' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-gd'
'--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--with-ttf' '--with-gdbm' '--with-gettext'
'--with-ncurses' '--with-gmp' '--with-iconv' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr'
'--with-mm' '--with-openssl' '--with-png' '--with-pspell'
'--with-regex=system' '--with-xml' '--with-expat-dir=/usr' '--with-zlib'
'--with-layout=GNU' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-debugger' '--enable-exif'
'--enable-ftp' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--enable-safe-mode'
'--enable-sockets' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm'
'--enable-discard-path' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-trans-sid'
'--enable-yp' '--enable-wddx' '--without-oci8' '--with-imap=shared'
'--with-imap-ssl' '--with-kerberos=/usr/kerberos' '--with-ldap=shared'
'--with-mysql=shared,/usr' '--with-pgsql=shared' '--with-snmp=shared,/usr'
'--with-snmp=shared' '--enable-ucd-snmp-hack' '--with-unixODBC=shared'
'--enable-memory-limit' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-shmop'
'--enable-versioning' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-dbx' '--enable-dio'
'--enable-mbstring' '--enable-mbstr-enc-trans'
'--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs'

I uncommented the extension=gettext.so line in php.ini.

When I try to view a page translated I get these errors:

   PHP Warning:  Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php4/gettext.so' -
   /usr/lib/php4/gettext.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
   directory in Unknown on line 0

The only instance of gettext.so on my system is in:

   /usr/libexec/rep/0.15.1/i386-redhat-linux/rep/i18n/gettext.so
   /usr/libexec/rep/0.15.1/i386-redhat-linux/gettext.so

One is a symlink to the other.  I tried to symlink it to
/usr/lib/php4/gettext.so, but then I got the error:

   PHP Warning:  Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php4/gettext.so' -
   /usr/lib/php4/gettext.so: undefined symbol: Qnil in Unknown on line 0

I looked for a package that provides /usr/lib/php4/gettext.so and found a
php-gettext rpm, but not for my version.

Any ideas?

TIA,

Jon
