oh and then there is the issue of making sure that the redhat
package manager really
won't overwrite your handbuilt php install (cannot for the life of
me remember what you have
to do to make redhat ignore the php install).
This might be of help: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/pipermail/ilugc/2005-

You can edit those srpms to include whatever configure line switches
you need.
I run RHEL4, and my own compile of PHP, set up outside of rpm. You
only need to worry about rpm getting confused if you use it to
install any packages that are dependent on php, e.g. squirrelmail.
Essentially either do ALL of your PHP setup and install through rpm
or none of it. I'm quite happy handling PHP myself, and conflicts are
rare as php is rarely a dependency for apps installed through rpm.
