Description Tim Jackson 2005-11-23 15:00:00 UTC 
Description of problem:
The main PHP package is dynamically linked to pcre, and indeed has a pcre-devel
BuildRequires, but does not have a corresponding Requires:. This means if you
install php without pcre installed, running "php" from the command line results
in errors.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
php-5.0.4-10.5
php-5.0.5-6 (rawhide) appears by visual inspection of the spec to have the same
problem

How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install php
2. rpm -e --nodeps pcre
3. "php"
 
Actual results:

php: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.0: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory

Expected results:
no errors

Comment 2 Joe Orton 2005-11-23 15:02:05 UTC 
The shared library dependency is picked up automatically as it should be.

$ rpm -q --requires php | grep pcre
libpcre.so.0

You are, of course, right.  My bad, sorry!
