Make failing --with-xsl

[molly]

If anyone can offer some suggestions here I'd be really grateful.

 

I'm trying to install PHP 5.5.8 and my configure statement is as follows:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-libdir=lib64 --with-tidy=/usr --with-gd --with-png-dir=/usr/local --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local --with-mysqli --with-mysql --with-xsl

--with-curl --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local --enable-soap --with-libxml-dir=/usr/local --enable-mbstring --with-ldap --with-pear

 

and it exits "make" with a string of errors like:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.4.7/../../../../lib64/libexslt.so: undefined reference to `xmlNewChild@LIBXML2_2.4.30'

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

make: *** [sapi/cli/php] Error 1

 

I have three RHEL 6 servers all generated from the same template and the install works fine on two but not on the third, where the install only works if I omit the "--with-xsl" . Has anyone any ideas on what I might be missing here?

 

Thanks very much!

I gave up on the yum installs, got myself a few tarballs for libxml and libxslt and that worked just fine so all is well again. Problem solved
