Adventures in Nerdville

I posted an article a while back where I gave instructions and provided a compiled download for the PHP5-GMP package on ubuntu gutsy. Since I couldn’t get ubuntu to work on my new server (another story), I ended up using debian. I had the same problem on there that there was no php5-gmp package, so I went through the same process and voila, it worked like a charm. Then a little while back, I went to do an upgrade and there was a fix for php out (I think it has to do with the OpenSSL vunerability that has been going around). The stinking update wanted to remove my php5-gmp package, so I had to go through all the hassle of rebuilding it.

Anyways, I figured I would provide the link to the new one since far more people are downloading the Etch version than the Ubuntu version (most likely because Hardy… which I am loving on my laptop btw includes it in the repo). Without further ado, here it is.

php5-gmp_520-8etch11_i386

Or the old one:

php5-gmp_520-8etch10_i386

See my old post for how to compile it on your own if you don’t trust me (which you rightfully shouldn’t, I could have a rootkit or a cup holder from coca-cola built in to there for all you know…)
