#27067: php5-oracle fails when /usr/bin/head is broken -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: jkorchok@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Resolution: duplicate | Keywords: php5 oracle Port: php5-oracle | -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Comment(by jkorchok@…): Replying to [comment:3 ryandesign@…]:
Your "head" command (/usr/bin/head) is broken, probably because you have manually installed LibWWW-Perl with its helper programs, which overwrites /usr/bin/head with a totally unrelated script called /usr/bin/HEAD. Please put back the proper "head" program by getting it from your backups, or by copying it from another Mac with the same version of Mac OS X, or from your Mac OS X install DVD. See #23312 for more suggestions.
The version of head in /usr/bin is the correct one. I found HEAD in /opt/local/bin where it had been installed by MacPorts back in 2006. After renaming it, I could install php5-oracle normally. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/27067#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
