I'm running OSX 10.4.11 on a powerbook (PPC) with the built in apache server, and php
4.3.11 (www.entropy.ch Release 1), both working fine. I have the Firebird.framework installed
and the isql command line tool is working fine too.

I've been trying to follow the instructions at http://www.firebirdfaq.org/faq191/ (How to use
Firebird with PHP) but I'm getting stuck on step 5 (run: ./configure --with-
interbase=shared,/opt/firebird). I get the error:

configure: error: libgds or libib_util not found! Check config.log for more information.

I've done a fair bit of googling and it seems that this is a common problem (and has been for
a while judging from the dates of the posts), but most of the discussion is a bit beyond me.

Is there a fix? As I understand it, I need to create an 'interbase.so' file. Is it possible for
someone to just send me a copy of it, of is it necessary for my system to create it?

Thanks in advance,

Tom
