Install gentoo geoip

Question

I am trying to install the geoip extension via SSH on my gentoo server. I did:

emerge Geo-IP

: OK

pecl install geoip

: OK

geoiplookup www.bbc.co.uk

: gives me GeoIP Country Edition: GB, UK GeoIP City Edition, Rev 1: GB, N7, Tadworth, (null), 51.283298, -0.233300, 0, 0 GeoIP City Edition, Rev 0: GB, N7, Tadworth, (null ), 51.283298, -0.233300

This seems to be good! Now I'm trying to add this as a php extension: I added

extension = / usr / local / php5 / library / php / extensions / geoip.so

in php.ini

and rehabilitated apache with

/etc/init.d/apache restart

BUT my phpinfo () does not contain any geographic information library and

Gives me an error: calling the undefined function geoip_record_by_name ()

Can someone help me install geoip in gentoo?

thank
