I'm trying to update my version of php on my unix system via a patch file instead of compliling the latest source.
I've downloaded the patch from the downloads section of www.php.net but unfortunately there are no installation instructions. I've tried
patch -p0 < php-4.2.0-to-4.2.2.patch
but it then asks me the name of the file to patch? I thought this would have been specified in the patch file itself. Has anyone successfully installed a patch file or know how to use the unix patch command well?
