During disscusion in russian mailing list we found some problems with installation on FreeBSD:
1) If you try to "make install" it fails, while "gmake install" works fine.
2) There's undocumented dependence in "generate-fpm-patch" (bash).
the solution is [code]sed -i '' -e '1s|^#!/bin/bash|#!/bin/sh|' generate-fpm-patch[/code]
because nothing "bash-specific" is required
3) Installing rc script to /etc/init.d/php-fpm is a bad idea on FreeBSD.
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/php-fpm fits better

Ah, does anyone know actually why this happens? Is the 'make' program
on BSD not the gnu make? Still, even with BSD make why shouldn't it
work? I'm asking because it would be nice to fix the make install
target properly and to be compatible for both. (and not wanting to add
an unnecessary dependancy / different command for gmake). We can raise
a bug in launchpad, if any help for attaching log files, etc.

Okay, this would require not much work. It seems like a good idea.

Sure we can provide 1 more configure flag --with-init-path=[PATH]

Probably better to to all of these in one go. So if there are any
other issue, please report them. Not sure what to do exactly about the
readme.markdown. If it needs changing, that might make the russian
translation out of date. But we are happy to recieve suggestions /
patches.

For example: if we are unable to fix this issue with make install
target, we could provide a little section explaining about FreeBSD /
*BSD. (or otherwise inline into existing sections). Other improvements
welcome.

gnu make is different from bsd and solaris make.

And yes, gmake is also needed on solaris.

It is a known 'problem' that many programs specifically require gnu make.

This *might* work,

ac/fpm_build.m4: 27:
dnl Set install target and select SAPI
- INSTALL_IT=""
+ INSTALL_IT=":"

Apply the change before running "generate-fpm-patch.sh".

The contents of INSTALL_IT variable is substituted for
$(INSTALL_IT) in the Makefile. So i'm guessing that BSD make is
erroring out if $(INSTALL_IT) is an empty string.

":" means no-op (do nothing) in the bourne shell.
If that didn't work then perhaps something else like:

INSTALL_IT="echo \"\""

or
INSTALL_IT="ls"

Unfortunately I cannot test because no freebsd. If somebody
experiencing these problems can reproduce the error, and try the fix?
Then we can go ahead and include it with the other changes.

Is it the same make error on Solaris? (below)

Installing PHP SAPI module: fpm
:No such file or directory
*** Error code 1

Stop in /tmp/php-5.3.0/fpm-build.


Or is the Solaris make error different to the freebsd make error?
Again, we are happy to look at patches for these other (non-linux)
unix OS.

I have a FreeBSD 7 machine I can test compilation on if needed.
