======Howto Compile PHP 5.2.x======

=====Introduction=====

This howto explain how to compile and install PHP5.2.x on Debian, to be run as a FastCGI application (Fcgid). This howto also explain how to register this PHP version through the [[plugins:phpswitcher|PhpSwitcher]] plugin.

=====Creating build environment=====

  # cd /usr/local/src
  # mkdir -p php_buildenv/php52 && cd php_buildenv/php52
  # apt-get update && apt-get install build-essential

=====Installing build dependencies=====

  # apt-get build-dep php5
  # apt-get install libfcgi-dev libfcgi0ldbl libjpeg62-dbg libmcrypt-dev \
  libssl-dev libc-client2007e libc-client2007e-dev libpq5

====Needed for php-imap module====
  # For X86_64  architectures
  ln -s /usr/lib/libc-client.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc-client.a
  
  # For i386 architectures
  ln -s /usr/lib/libc-client.a /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc-client.a

=====Fetching PHP sources=====
  # wget http://museum.php.net/php5/php-5.2.17.tar.gz
  # tar -xzf php-5.2.17.tar.gz
  # cd php-5.2.17

====The sources must be patched====
