I used RedHat for years, and compiling new versions of PHP was really easy because phpinfo() displayed ./configure options stored by php build for system administrator convience. One just had to watch for outdated / new options of configure. However, they (Ubuntu or Debian) built their own custom script which removes this ./configure line from phpinfo() output, so one have to find proper options manually. However it was easier than trying to build the package on my own, anyway. Dmitriy
