need help installing pecl on centos 5.8
centos, linux, pecl, ssh, yum
Solution
`/usr/bin/pecl` is available from `php-pear` package.
The dependency failures you got are stange. Probably because you have mixed installation of `php-*` 5.1 RPMs and `php53-*` 5.3 RPMs and get conflicts on devel files. You should do some clean up to keep only one set of RPMs for your target version, either 5.1 or 5.3.
You also have to install `gcc`, `httpd-devel`, `php(53)-devel` and finally `php-pear` to get `phpize` working.
Then you should be able to run `pecl install apc`
Problem
So basically I'm trying to install APC, but I can't get pecl to work on Centos 5.8 i686 I have the latest stable releases of php-fpm, mysql, and nginx. Everything is working at 100%, everything is smooth. I'm running a live website with no problems. I just can't pecl to work. yum install php-pear: Most of the packages I'm trying to instal have dependency issues with php-common (whatever that is). ``` php-common = 5.1.6-32.el5 is needed ``` Much help is appreciated!
