At first PHP's configure script would fail saying that my version of libxml was too old. I eventually modified my sources.list (I'm using Debian 3.0r2) to use testing code instead of stable and apt-get'ed libxml so I am now upgraded above what PHP requires. However, I still have trouble around the same point as I did before (libxml stuff).
Here is the last part of the configure output (./configure --with-apxs --with-pgsql):
Configuring extensions
checking whether to enable LIBXML support... yes
checking libxml2 install dir... no
checking whether libxml build works... no
configure: error: build test failed. Please check the config.log for details.
I have also tried --with-libxml-dir but the only thing that did was "checking libxml2 install dir... yes"
And here is the relevant last part of the config.log:
configure:17846: checking whether to enable LIBXML support

}
It appears as though I am missing a library as the linker is throwing errors (possibly I just have an incorrect directory?). Thanks for any help.
