Successful install in Ubuntu 6.06 (LTS/Dapper)?

Hello,

I've searched the archives and know I have a common
problem, but haven't
seen an answer that works for me.

The problem is that I can't install phpyaz, though I have a
working
yaz-client.

I am using php5, apache2, and mysql5.

I began with the debian (sarge) packages, but these don't
work with
ubuntu 6.06 because of some library problems:

> Password:
> Reading package lists... Done
> Building dependency tree... Done

> E: Broken packages

(I also tried installing libyaz first: the problem is that
dependent
libraries in Ubuntu have different names that clearly are
not
recognised).

I also tried installing from pear, and succeeded... except
that it
doesn't work:


>  pear install yaz
> No releases available for package
"pear.php.net/yaz" - package pecl/yaz can be
installed with "pecl install yaz"
> Cannot initialize 'yaz', invalid or missing package
file
> Package "yaz" is not valid
> install failed
> dancaedmon:~$ pecl install yaz
> Skipping package "pear/yaz", already
installed as version 1.0.7
> No valid packages found
> install failed

I followed the thread beginning here:
http://lists.indexdata.dk/pipermail/yazli
st/2003-September/000703.html.
But to no avail. This is also quite old.

A check with <? php-info ?> shows yaz is not installed
as a php module.

Does anybody have any suggestions or models?

Perhaps the binary .deb packages you get after running

 apt-get --build source yaz

work better for you, as long as indexdata hasn't published
packages
specifically for Ubuntu Dapper.  You need an indexdata etch
deb-src line
in your sources.list for this.

I expect some packages for Dapper to become available from
the indexdata
apt-able archive soonish, so perhaps just waiting a little
longer is
better.

Bye,

Joost

We have currently no intention to package our software for
Ubuntu, as 
packaging and testing distributions is a major time and
resource 
consuming task.

If the above suggestion:

    apt-get --build source yaz

does not work for you, its's almost certainly because
package 
dependencies and names are different on Ubuntu and plain
Debian.

You might want to run

   apt-get source yaz

only, step inside the yaz-*.*.*/debian dir and inspect the
'control' file, which states dependencies. There you can
change 
dependencies to the Ubuntu names, step back  in the yaz root
dir, and run

dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot

to build Ubuntu packages with right dependencies. Some
background 
reading on the Debian developer site (or Ubuntu site) to
understand
packaging issues might be very appropriate.


Good luck!

And please, remember to post your findings here.

An update:

I went through the suggestions made:

1) tried the following to no avail

The problem turned out to be that Ubuntu ships with an
earlier version
of libssl. I installed the debian stable version
(libssl0.9.7 to replace
Ubuntu's libssl0.9.76):
 wget
http:/
/security.debian.org/debian-security/pool/updates/main/o/ope
nssl/libssl0.9.7_0.9.7e-3sarge1_i386.deb
 sudo dpkg -i lib

Then
 sudo apt-get install yaz
 sudo apt-get install libyaz
 sudo apt-get install yaz
 sudo apt-get install libyaz-dev
 sudo pecl uninstall yaz
 sudo pecl install yaz

In the installation, I get the following warning:

A check of /var/tmp/pear-build-root, however, shows that it
stops there
(i.e. no /var/tmp/pear-build-root/yaz-1.0.7/ has been
installed.

Any suggestions?

A further update:

I managed to get it running. It turns out you need to add
extension=yaz.so (not php_yaz.so as mentioned in http://ca3.php.net/yaz)
to /etc/apache2/ph.ini
