No detection of build failure

[Alex Kiesel]

Hi,

I just wanted to upgrade lang/php4. I configured WITH_OPENSSL but
configure did not find a header file and bailed out:

Configuring extensions
checking for OpenSSL support... yes
checking for pkg-config... /usr/local/bin/pkg-config
configure: error: Cannot find OpenSSL's <evp.h>
===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
Please report the problem to ale at FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach the
"/usr/ports/lang/php4/work/php-4.3.5/config.log" including the output of
the
failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to provide
an
overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. an `ls
/var/db/pkg`).
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/lang/php4.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/lang/php4.



However, the install process continues:
--->  Backing up the old version
--->  Uninstalling the old version
--->  Deinstalling 'php4-4.3.4_5'
[preparing module `php4' in /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf]

Which then again tries to configure the port and fails again. This time
the failure is being detected and the old version is restored:
** Command failed [exit code 1]: /usr/bin/script -qa

egrep: /var/db/pkg/php4-4.3.4_5/+CONTENTS: No such file or directory

Shouldn't it avoid to install the non-built port?

Btw, this is a 
"FreeBSD php3.de 4.8-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p1 #0: Tue Aug  5

with openssl from the base.

Cheers,
