Hello all,
# I am quite new to 64 bit Linux
I am trying to build php-5.3.6 on CentOS 5.6, 64 bit.
When I run ./configure under php-5.3.6, I get the following error:
----- Error ----- If configure fails try --with-jpeg-dir=<DIR> configure: error: libpng.(a|so) not found. ----- Error -----
Though libpng-devel and libjpeg-devel (both i386 and x64 rpms) are installed, it seems that configure could not find them.
(I guess) I've fixed the errors by:
1. Adding /usr/lib64 to /etc/so.ld.conf, and 2. Specify jpeg lib dir that configure has to look: ./configure --with-jpeg-dir=/usr
So, php 5.3.6 did compile fine but, curiously, I want to ask:
3. Why /usr/lib64 is not in ldconfig by default? 4. Why it is "--with-jpeg-dir=/usr" but not "--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib64"?
BR,
Nguyễn Vũ Hưng

I think you meant, /etc/ld.so.conf? Anyway, there’s no need to add. But if you’re going to add something, it’s a better practice to add a file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d instead.

It is. Did you check with “ldconfig -v”?
- Why it is "--with-jpeg-dir=/usr" but not "--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib64"?
That worked because you have both i386 and x64 RPMs installed.
As already pointed out, you could have fixed that by using “--with-libdir=lib64”.
So, if you want to use /usr/lib64, try the following instead:
./configure --with-libdir=lib64 --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib64
HTH,
Hi,
Any reason why you want to compile it and not use the packages from IUS http://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/stable/Redhat/5/x86_64/repoview/php53u.ht...
