Thanks to all who responded.
But I repeat the question:
how to upgrade CentOS4 to PHP 5.2.5 correctly?
There is no "correct" method for this, there are only "less wrong"
ways to do it.
1. download form php.net + make ... etc.
No. This method is not advisable at all, because it circumvents the
package management of the system. This point stands for every distro
with a package manager, not just centos.
I think 'make' to something like '/opt/php-5.2.5' would be "less wrong".
At least that is where i keep my 'make'd apps.
apache has php dependencies, so you'll be replacing that too? and, in
turn, php has dependencies on dozens of other RPMs, like libraries,
databases, yada yada. it spirals out.
