Upgrade PHP 5.3 RC1?

Quote:As I wrote, I'm trying to compile PHP 5.3.0RC1 on Debian Etch...

Ok, was not really clear in my eyes!

Quote:Does anyone know which packages to use with the ./configure script? I found
http://phpmelb.org/index.php?option=com_...icle&id=69
thus far, but it's over a year old and it doesn't explain the packages.

You run configure in the extracted folder, there should be a makefile in it.

Quote:Which ones are best practices?

Use a ready compiled Version like dotdeb if you are unsecure. Next is be sure you have all modules compiled in.

Quote:Can I somehow find out which standard packages are in the PHP 5.3 Windows binaries or in the PHP 5.2.x installation currently on my Linux (Debian Etch) vServer?

You mean PHPinfo ?

Quote:Another thing I found out with the PHP 5.3.0RC1 release is that the two php.ini* files shipped have a missing semicolon on line 581 that prevents PHP from being configurable:

Solved in the dotdeb package ?!
