Re: [PHP] 7.3.1 BREAKS COMPATIBILITY with the latest PHP4

I am happy for you-- you got YOUR copy of PHP 4.3.0 working with YOUR copy
of PostgreSQL 7.3.1. However, two questions:

1) How can I do the same?
2) Were you previously using PostgreSQL 7.3.0? If so, you most likely HAD
A COPY of libpq.so.2 still floating about in /usr/local/postgres/lib or
wherever... A mediocre and kluge-y solution at best. (So everyone
installing PostgreSQL 7.3.x with PHP for the first time is required to
FIRST install 7.3.0, THEN install 7.3.1 atop it, to get both versions of
libpq.so? That would be a horrendous band-aid-ish solution. C'mon, we're
all above that sort of rubbish. This is PostgreSQL, not Microsoft SQL
Server. ;) )

Can you show me the output of 'ls' on your PostgreSQL libs directory
please?
