Debian is a very good distrib. Actually, I think it’s the best one.
But sometimes it’s need of stability keeps us on old versions.
so here are the instructions to update PEAR php.
1 2 | pear update-channels pear upgrade-all |
Done !
Update PEAR to the latest version
Update PEAR to the latest version
Update PHP to the latest version on Debian Lenny
Update PHP to the latest version on Debian Lenny
It’s easier than you think.
First you have to add the dotdeb packages to the /etc/apt/sources.list file
1 2 | deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all |
if you want the php 5.3 branch, add these lines instead
1 2 | deb http://php53.dotdeb.org stable all deb-src http://php53.dotdeb.org stable all |
You have then to install the gpg keys :
1 2 | gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 89DF5277 gpg -a --export 89DF5277 | sudo apt-key add - |
(remove “sudo” if you’re already root)
Then do :
1 2 | apt-get update apt-get upgrade |
Here you have, the latest PHP version (5.2.14 or 5.3.3 at this moment)

IE 6 is evil, but we have to support it.
We (by we I mean all web developpers) all know that Internet explorer is a real nightmare for web design and developping.
Everytime that we make a nice effect or a nice design. It turns out that IE 6 doesn’t support it.
For a little example, who tried to create a position:fixed element on a page. and gave up because he didn’t want to put some javascript in his page?
Yeah I know, that’s scary. By the way, put down your hand, you look idiot by raising your hand behind your computer.
But that’s enough !!!
