I'll agree to that as well. +1 on removing --with-mysql as a default. Although realize I'm also +1 on removing any default modules that are not essential to PHP's running. > Is --disable-something is too hard to get used to? Yes it is. Why? Because PHP has so many options at this point, finding which modules are automatically enabled isn't terribly easy. More to the point, it's a PITA to find out during the build you forgot to explicitly disable a feature. In general it is easier to enable a feature than to disable a feature (witness Clippy). >---------------------------------------------------------------< Dan Kalowsky "A little less conversation, http://www.deadmime.org/~dank a little more action." dank-nom@aps-deadmime.org - "A Little Less Conversation", kalowsky@php.net Elvis Presley
