After 2 weeks of inaction 5.2.0 final release is finally in sight. A few minutes ago I've released the last (I mean it this time) release candidate of 5.2.0, RC5. If all goes well a week from now 5.2.0 final will be out ready for use. In the meantime I'd like to ask once again that everyone try this RC, which can downloaded from here:
http://downloads.php.net/ilia/php-5.2.0RC5.tar.bz2 (md5sum: 9a7fb788fbfd2beb8ed7aecb0a7d1598)

I don't think you'd be able to find any major issues or regressions in this RC, but if you do certainly let me know, if necessary RC6 is not out of the question.

Peter on :

I'm getting errors from the configure command.

php-5.2.0RC5 root# ./configure
creating cache ./config.cache
checking for Cygwin environment... no
checking for mingw32 environment... no
checking for egrep... grep -E
checking for a sed that does not truncate output... /usr/bin/sed
expr: syntax error
./configure: line 2333: test: =: unary operator expected
checking host system type... powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0
checking target system type... powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0

The offending line in './configure' looks like this:

if test `expr -- $0 : "'.*"` = 0; then

'./configure' reports as having finished successfully, but I'm not confident it really is successful with conditionals failing like that. I get many more of those errors if I add some arguments to the configure command.

Ilia Alshanetsky on :

The error you are seeing comes from the bit that generates config.nice, so your configuration is OK, you can safely compile your php.

What shell (name & version) are you using, all the ones we've tested this code on had so far worked ok with it?

Peter on :

root# /bin/sh --version
GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release (powerpc-apple-darwin7.0)Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Running on Mac OS X 10.3.9

Ilia Alshanetsky on :

I've tried it on my OSX
GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release (powerpc-apple-darwin8.0)
Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

and I get no warnings here, perhaps you need a newer version of developer tools?

Peter on :

It doesn't bother me so much (now I know it's compiling OK). It's up to you guys what shell versions you want to support.

Helmut on :

RC5 fails to compile here (RC4 compiled fine):

Ilia Alshanetsky on :

What version of libcurl are you using?

Helmut on :

version 7.10.6 (the release delivered
with RHEL3). Maybe there is a possible
way for you which wouldn't force me to
maintain a separate curl installation for
php?

Ilia Alshanetsky on :

Try the following patch and see if it fixes the cURL build issue.

http://bb.prohost.org/patch/curl.txt

Helmut on :

Hello Ilia,

first of all sorry for the delay (weekend). The patch works, compile and link stages finish now.

Many Thanks,
Helmut

Rene Leonhardt on :

Dear Ilia,

The new release candidate is really impressive!

Please consider upgrading the bundled SQLite to version 3.3.8 (first full-text search module included).
And good to see the RC1 of XDebug 2.0.0.

Keep up the good work,
René
