We have PHP 4.3.9 on a RedHat ES4 server.
Supposedly PHP4 comes with ZZIPLib pre-bundled:

http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.zip.php

But I can't locate the library on the server. And my phpinfo() doesn't
have it listed (which I expected because the link above indicates you
have to manually add the support on the install.)
So, I downloaded the library:
http://zziplib.sourceforge.net/download.html
and the README says all I have to do is the usual ./configure, make,
make install.

Now, that probably installs the library on the server, but I'll
probably have to recompile PHP anyway, will I?

I ask for any suggestions from people with personal experience in it
because this is our production server, and I'd really like to know what
to expect before I end up ruinging our PHP install. =)

Thanks for any suggestions!
