For some reason the gui doesn't work for me now:

PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/php_gtk2.so' - /usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/php_gtk2.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
PHP Fatal error:  Class 'GtkWindow' not found in /usr/share/phoronix-test-suite/pts-core/objects/gtk/pts_gtk_window.php on line 24

I installed the php5-gtk2 deb package I always install and added the extension parameter like always, yet it doesn't want to work this time around.

Did you just upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04? If so, then it's because the ABI broke with PHP 5.3 and I (or someone) need to end up building a new PHP5-GTK module for that newer PHP in Ubuntu & co.

[Melcar]

Yeah, fresh install of Lucid.

I can agree with this. I would like to see you guys drop the dependency for php5-gtk2... it would greatly simplify the installation and porting process.

The dependency is optional and only needed if you need the GUI. But it's really the only choice... PHP-Qt is in even worse shape than PHP-GTK and is even more scarce to find DEB/RPMs.

Michael, do you plan at one point to "officially" provide packages for php-gtk on your own? It would be really useful and convenient to have it available from the download page.

I have a 32-bit PHP5-GTK Lucid built but won't have the time to do a 64-bit build until probably next week or so, but after that it will be up there like I have had the 64-bit Karmic/Jaunty PHP5-GTK.
