Is there a repository that has php version 5.2 or greater available for use with the Centos 5.3 distribution? This includes the development libraries package. Thanks.
Just finished compiling php 5.2.9 from the sprms I found here: http://oss.oracle.com/projects/php/
works fine despite the slight Oracle smell - but they should really make a repository.
I also have src.rpm's here:
I use to maintain binary repo but that's a lot of work I no longer have time for.
If I'm not mistaken, the Oracle src.rpm's are based on Fedora. So are mine, except mine also has the suhosin core patch.
Once used Jason Litka's repository but it sees a bit stale now: http://www.jasonlitka.com/2007/11/16/upgrading-to-php-525-on-rhel-and-centos...
Mine currently has 5.2.9 but I probably won't update it, other than maybe to add security patches as vulnerabilities are found.
I'm only running 5.2.9 myself because I wanted to report a bug and the php devel team wants you to try the latest version first. Since 5.2.9 didn't break anything of mine, I kept it. (oh - and my bug wasn't a bug, it was my mis-understanding of the still poorly documented DOMDocument class related to namespaces)
centos also has some php 5.2.x I believe in their testing repo.
