Hi,
I changed this to /usr/local/lib/php/<APISPEC> in the patch Sascha
reverted, but I'll put that part back. The APISPEC part should
definitely be included, or we'll have a boatload of mails asking why
loading module X failed. If for example some Linux distributions want
to skip it (Mandrake cooker does at least), that's up to them.
Anyway, the APISPEC will be shortened from "20001222-no-debug-non-zts"
to just "20001222", and the "extensions" part of the path is skipped.
The PEAR stuff is moved to /usr/local/share/php. Both of these paths
can be set with the --datadir and --libdir configure options.
I try to put it back in tomorrow.
- Stig
