Dear developers

...this is not a bug, but I want to beg you to install a compiling service (perheps a payable). If somebody wants to compile some options for PHP it needs a lot of stuff (e.g. PDF or Oracle support). So I think it will be a good idea if there is the possibility to select a preferred PHP-constellation in a form, and then download the compiled libphp.so (like for MAC-systems).
Is it possible to implement such a service?? Hope to hear from you...

Martin

Getting it to work would require quite a lot of work and testing. And still it wouldn't work for everybody.
It's really easy to compile it yourself anyway.
As long as you have the necessary libraries and such.

I don't have problems to compile PHP (the scripts running good, and the error-messages are OK). But the problem is to get all libs. (If I want to compile oracle support, I have to install the oracle clients, and installing oracle isn't easy, and it costs recouces).
Perhaps my problem is solved if the neccecary libs are downloadable from the PHP-site?
(btw. thank's for such a quick answer. Good support!!)

Good that you mentioned Oracle libs. It's not possible to have those available at php.net as they are licensed and NOT FREE. Same applies to most of the non-os libraries too.

One good thing would be a general list of URLs where to find them. (you can download the 650MB oracle package for 'free' but you need to register there first)
