On my local Debian server I always build PHP from the sources. Currently
it's 5.2.3, but I think I will update it to the recent version soon.
The only problem was when I compiled it the first time - there were a
lot of missing dependencies. But all those *-dev packages were quickly
installed, and since then it's always just the usual
../configure
make
make install
Takes some time on a 550MHz machine, though. ;)
I've written a little script to call configure, so I don't have to
remember and re-type all the config options I want. I just unpack the
sources, copy my little 'startconf' script and run it.
Then, after the second cup of tea, I force the Apache server to reload
the PHP module and that's it. Pretty easy after it has been done once.
