Thanks for your help everybody ! it seems that the "better" way i found is
cd <mydirectory> phpize autoconf ./configure make make install
assuming that php is installed in the machine. I dont think the src are
needed. Thanks for your help

Then untar in some directory. Then you need to create the skeleton of your extension by either executing ext/ext_skel.sh or using PEAR's module for doing that. Then you need to edit your config.m4 which will be under ext/xyz/config.m4 (xyz is the name of the extension). Then re-run ./buidlconf . After that just use configure (configure --help | less should show your extension). For compiling - make. Every time you change sth in config.m4 you have to re-run buildconf. There is a way to build only a specific directory with phpize but then you need to have this php-devel package or to have installed from source with make install.
