USE flag 'sharedmem' conflicts w/ these USE flag(s): threads

Post by satur9 »

When I try to emerge php I get this error. I tried to put "USE="dev-lang/php-5.1.4 -threads"" in the package.use file like emerge tells me but I must be putting it it wrong.

What is the correct syntax to shut off threads to stop the "sharedmem" error and install php?

I followed the tutorial on the main gentoox site. I am running the newest version of gentoox home v5. I've updated portage, ran magic, and ran emerge sync (not necessarily in that order)

any help is appreciated, thanks

[/code]pico -w /etc/make.conf

ensure that the Use="whatever" line has the word "threads" and it looks like "-threads" with the "-" symbol and without the quotes.

I got it to work with:

$ USE="-threads" apache dev-lang/php
