Unfortunately, the Makefile for the squirrelmail port says:
RUN_DEPENDS+= ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache/libphp4.so:${PORTSDIR}/www/mod_php4
which means that if ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache/libphp4.so cannot be
found at compile/install time, the squirrelmail port will try and
install mod_php4 to fulfil the dependency. Since you've already
installed mod_php4 with the -DWITH_APACHE2 flag, causing the loadable
module to be installed as ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache2/libphp4.so, the
system will try and reinstall mod_php4, which you've already
discovered doesn't work.
One solution is to patch the squirrelmail port Makefile:
--- Makefile.orig Fri Sep 20 17:38:46 2002
+++ Makefile Fri Oct 25 16:49:45 2002
@@ -13,7 +13,11 @@
MAINTAINER= simond@irrelevant.org
-RUN_DEPENDS+= ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache/libphp4.so:${PORTSDIR}/www/mod_php4
+.if defined(WITH_APACHE2)
+RUN_DEPENDS+= ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache2/libphp4.so:${PORTSDIR}/www/mod_php4
+.else
+RUN_DEPENDS+= ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache/libphp4.so:${PORTSDIR}/www/mod_php4
+.endif
USE_BZIP2= yes
NO_BUILD= yes
Then make -DWITH_APACHE2
The same problem will affect all ports that install PHP code. See for
instance:
o [2002/08/12] ports/41577 ports port security/acid won't see apache2+mod_php4
o [2002/09/21] ports/43225 nbm phpPgAdmin port doesn't work with Apache2 by default
o [2002/09/21] ports/43227 ports squirrelmail port doesn't support Apache2
o [2002/10/05] ports/43706 nbm Make databases/phpmyadmin operate with apache2
Cheers,
Matthew
