only asked if I need to change only the prefix, or if there is anything

ok, or not, I'll be getting rid of php4. I'm not running a dev machine, this
is production, and the only one I have currently, my backup died last week
and I haven't gotten the parts for it yet. Is prefix the only option I need
to change? Or do I need to change these too?

--datadir=/usr/share \
--includedir=/usr/include \
--libdir=/usr/lib \
--libexecdir=/usr/libexec \
--localstatedir=/var \
--mandir=/usr/share/man \
--infodir=/usr/share/info \
--with-exec-dir=/usr/bin \


Thanks,
Jake

AFAIK are these settings all relative to prefix. So if your prefix is
/opt/php5, datadir would become /opt/php5/share, includedir would
become /opt/php5/include etc.
