PECL DBDO-alpha Installation on Gentoo

24.06.2005

Update:
Installing libgda now has less dependencies. So you just do a
$ emerge gnome-extra/libgda
$ pecl install dbdo-alpha
and you’re done.

Outdated:
Finally there seems now way around emerging libgda with all its dependencies [1].
$ emerge gnome-extra/libgda

To build libgda from source we need
$ emerge dev-util/gtk-doc gnome-base/gnome-common

After that get libgda from Gnome CVS [2].
$ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome
$ cvs login
$ [enter]
$ cvs -z3 co libgda
$ cd libgda
$ ./autogen.sh && make && make install


Finally we will build DBDO-alpha [3]
$ pear install DBDO-alpha
Add the extension to /etc/php/*-php5/php.ini.
Done.
