Safe to recompile php5?

[dwessell]

I'm install drupal on an ubuntu server running ispcp.

And I get messages regarding the GD image library. Apperantly ubuntu installs php5 with the official gd library, and not the one bundled with php.. Which leads to some perfomance issue.

My quuestion is since ispcp is in the mix, and I'm just learning how it works, am I safe to recompile php5?

Thanks

This has nothing to do with ispCP.

Perhaps I should restate my question. If I reinstall php5 on this ubuntu machine, will it cause any havoc with what ispcp does?

Thanks
