We have pretty much taken the position that if a package does not have any sort of installation mechanism, then it is up to users to install these things themselves. I always stick libraries in /usr/local/lib and header files in /usr/local/include. Thus, this approach has made its way into PHP, although the "/usr/local" part is usually configurable. It is a very bad idea to link against as source directory, in my opinion, and thus I would much rather have the PHP build fail if someone hasn't installed the library and header files somewhere appropriate than make PHP hunt around for the files inside a source directory. -Rasmus -- PHP Beta Testers' Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe send an empty message to php-beta-unsubscribe@lists.php.net List administrator: zeev@php.net
