Getting php w/libmcrypt to compile

lad to Just a quick note I thought I would drop to anybody who is having this error popup when trying to compile PHP:

QUOTE:

/usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lltdl

If you want to fix that error all you really need to do is go back into your source tree for libmcrypt. and execute the following commands:

cd libmcrypt-2.5.7
cd libltdl
./configure
--enable-ltdl-install
make
make install

turns out that FreeBSD porting process doesn't do this for you. I also am hearing word that not many if any of the automated packaging systems do this. So, hopefully I saved somebody out there a headache

You saved me a headache. Thanks. You may want to change
./configure --enable-ltld-install
to
./configure --enable-ltdl-install

Glad I could help.

Thanks for the heads up about the typo. I fixed that and also edited so those commands don't all show up on the same line.

Next time maybe I'll double check an entry after I post
