mandriva and gd problem

Hi all,

I have php 5 and gd install on a mandriva and i'm working with it since
a long time. Now i want to use functions like imagepstext that require
gd with t1lib enable.

I work with a mandriva server so i use urpmi to install php extensions
and other programs. I've successfully installed php-gd package but at
this time it is impossible for me to enable t1lib in mandriva. I don't
find any package named php-t1lib or php-gd-t1lib so i install t1lib by
hand but now i don't know how to say to php to enable t1lib.

Can someone explain me how to do this on a system who use urpmi.

thanks

Marc,

I'm typing this message to you from my desktop at work - a
dual-headed Mandriva 2006.0C machine with PHP5 installed, complete
with GD and T1. Try this:

urpmi libt1lib5
urpmi t1lib-config
urpmi php-gd

Then install PHP as you normally would, using URPMI. If you
already have the packages installed, back up your php.ini file (and
any external configuration scripts you may have) and `rpm -e` them.
You may have to force the removal with --nodeps flipped on.

If that doesn't work, reply back with what version of PHP you're
using and we'll go from there.

If you get really stuck (i.e. think it's not possible with the current
packaging) please post a bug in our Bugzilla,
http://qa.mandriva.com/enter_bug.cgi...fication=__all
Add me as a CC (I'm not the default maintainer for PHP on Mandriva, that
accolade belongs to Oden, but I use PHP a lot and keep generally up to
date with Odens work) and I'll take a look. My Mdv email is cguthrie at
mandriva dot org.

It's not really relevant for the PHP ML at large, so probably best dealt
with there.

I'm also quite often on #mandriva-cooker IRC channel if you want some
interactive help....
