I have a [gentoo] server with 2 apache installations ... the std distro apache runs with php4 which includes an installation of PEAR and PECL. the second apache is compiled by hand and runs with php5 (also compiled by hand) - obviously both of these are installed somewhere other than the default. the [custom] php5 installation does not include PEAR/PECL (when I built/installed it I skipped that because I was worried I'd get a conflict with the existing PEAR/PECL install and break something). I would like to add the APC extension to the php5 setup, normally this is as involved as doing the following: > pecl install apc only in this case that would install APC in the php4 setup. the question is how do I go about getting a second/custom PEAR/PECL setup running which I can use with/for the php5 setup. is this even possible? or am I stuck with a manual download, compile and install of APC for the php5 setup as described here for instance: http://carroll.org.uk/archives/2006/02/02/alternative-php-cache-apc-on-debian)? tia, Jochem PS - STWF is giving me no joy, everything I find assumes the pecl/pear commands are setup and running.
