I'll have to talk to Andi about this too. The purpose of installing the libraries is just to clean up the build process a bit. Even if there is a file called libzend.a in /usr/local/lib, it's not really installed separately, it was done as part of the PHP instalation after all. Consider the changes I'm doing now as an experiment, just checking which approach that proves to be the most convenient. - Stig -- PHP 4 Beta
