Re: Additional PHP Modules?



Hi again, I think I sent this before in HTML, and thus didn't get any responses.. Sorry.. New email client that has since been re-configured :) I'm still curious as I'd prefer not to have to compile all of PHP myself... Can anyone help me?

---- Previous message ------

Hello All,

Quick Question (I hope):

I'm using Potato and I'm effectively a Debian novice, but I've been working with Linux (Slackware dist.) for a while. I know how to compile Apache with PHP4 and all the modules I want, however I'd like to use the package system (that Debian has) to do as much as possible for a web server install. I've got the following modules installed, tested and (as far as I can tell) working:

Apache (etc)
PHP4 (4.03pl)
PHP4-dev
PHP4-gd
PHP4-imap
PHP4-mysql
PHP4-pgsql
PHP4-xml

BUT I'd like to also install PHP support for creating SWF Flash Files on the fly, Calendar Support (mcal) etc. via additional PHP modules.

So my question is: How do I either compile additional modules for PHP and incorporate them into my Potato install, or find pre-compiled packages for these things?

Thanks in advance,

Cam

PS: I've been looking through the FAQs and List archives to no avail, but if I missed something then simply pointing me in the right direction would be great! Thanks.

---- End.

Thanks again.

Cam
