Hello Everyone; I am trying to build PHP 5.2.5 on Centos 64 bit. I am seeing the error below in the Configuration Extensions section when I run configure. ^[[1mConfiguring extensions^[[m checking whether to enable LIBXML support... yes checking libxml2 install dir... /usr checking for xml2-config path... /usr/bin/xml2-config checking whether libxml build works... yes checking for OpenSSL support... yes checking for Kerberos support... yes checking for krb5-config... /usr/kerberos/bin/krb5-config checking for DSA_get_default_method in -lssl... yes checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config checking for PCRE support... yes configure: error: Could not find libpcre.(a|so) in /usr Here is the start of my configure line LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib64" LD_LIBRARY_PATH="-L/usr/lib64" LD_PATH="-L/usr/lib64" LDPATH="-L/usr/lib64" ./configure \ .... --libdir=/usr/lib64 \ ....

I think I am missing something simple. Is there anything else you would like to see? thank you. Steven 8-)
