Had to build a new PHP package because the one that's installed using swaret does not have curl or mcrypt. I got the configure and make both seemed to work correctly and gave me success messages, but when I run checkinstall I get this message.

Bye.

Can anybody help?

Hello... Anybody???

I would recommend downloading the source from a Slackware mirror, editing the php.Slackbuild script to your needs, and compiling it that way - it'll even create a new package in /tmp.

Thanks, I edited my config script and eventually got it to work on my own since it took several hours to get an answer from this forum
