Hi all, I'm still trying to find various decisions of configure of php-5.1.1 It seems --with-layout is not awfully described: Set how installed files will be laid out. Type is one of "PHP" or "GNU" When I look in configure.in I see that it sets oldstyleextdir variable, and, it changes only where php extensions are installed by default. With that said, old style is: $libdir/extensions/$extbasedir while new style is: $libdir/$extbasedir Question is, why have we switched to new style, removing extensions dir? I've searched archive of this mailing list, but I couldn't find the reason... Is it ok to remove $extbasedir, so I only have extensions in extensions/* and not extensions/$ZEND_MODULE_API_NO? thank you for your time, N::
