I cant find much information on the distro's. So i was wondering if there is a distro that explained what is compliled in it.

They'll generally get everything set up for you, with the minimum of tinkering around of config files needed. I've got Fedora on my home system, which is essentially the same as Red Hat, and it comes with a good package manager that comes with many PEAR modules, lots of database connection modules, and other things you may need like GD, SOAP, and others. I'd say you can't go too wrong with all of that, as it lets you add only what you need as and when you require it.
