Hmm, I don't think I've ever really built my LAMP with anything special. I always compile my packages myself, I don't use RPM's.
(is that bad not to use RPM's??)

And yes it is Linux, sorry for not being detailed....

I always assumed it was somehow more than just recompiling PHP ontop of the old one.....is it really that straightforward?
