configure: error: utf8_mime2text() has new signature, but U8T_CANONICAL is missing

Question

Today I am trying to upgrade php on MacOS Mountain Lion. I followed MacTuts+ tutorial and on the step where I execute that long command:

./configure  \
--prefix=/usr  \
--mandir=/usr/share/man  \
--infodir=/usr/share/info  \
--sysconfdir=/private/etc  \
--with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs  \
--enable-cli  \
--with-config-file-path=/etc  \
--with-libxml-dir=/usr  \
--with-openssl=/usr  \
--with-kerberos=/usr  \
--with-zlib=/usr  \
--enable-bcmath  \
--with-bz2=/usr  \
--enable-calendar  \
--with-curl=/usr  \
--enable-dba  \
--enable-exif  \
--enable-ftp  \
--with-gd  \
--enable-gd-native-ttf  \
--with-icu-dir=/usr  \
--with-iodbc=/usr  \
--with-ldap=/usr  \
--with-ldap-sasl=/usr  \
--with-libedit=/usr  \
--enable-mbstring  \
--enable-mbregex  \
--with-mysql=mysqlnd  \
--with-mysqli=mysqlnd  \
--without-pear  \
--with-pdo-mysql=mysqlnd  \
--with-mysql-sock=/var/mysql/mysql.sock  \
--with-readline=/usr  \
--enable-shmop  \
--with-snmp=/usr  \
--enable-soap  \
--enable-sockets  \
--enable-sysvmsg  \
--enable-sysvsem  \
--enable-sysvshm  \
--with-tidy  \
--enable-wddx  \
--with-xmlrpc  \
--with-iconv-dir=/usr  \
--with-xsl=/usr  \
--enable-zip  \
--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2007 \
--with-kerberos \
--with-imap-ssl \
--enable-intl \
--with-pcre-regex  \
--with-pgsql=/usr  \
--with-pdo-pgsql=/usr \
--with-freetype-dir=/usr/X11 \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr  \
--with-png-dir=/usr/X11

I get the error at the end of process.

configure: error: utf8_mime2text() has new signature, but U8T_CANONICAL is missing. This should not happen. Check config.log for additional information.

Any solution? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

For those who have the same error on docker:

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y libc-client-dev libkrb5-dev && rm -r /var/lib/apt/lists/*
RUN docker-php-ext-configure imap --with-kerberos --with-imap-ssl \
    && docker-php-ext-install imap

Answer 2

If you have the 'libc-client-devel' RPM or other package in your OS repository then install it.

This will provide the c-client library and header files which PHP needs for IMAP support.
