Ondřej, Thank-you for looking at this. I purged the dotdeb packages and downloaded the source files from php.net. I'm attempting to compile because I want some of the features in 5.2, and did not think I could get a 5.2 package for Debian.
If I can, is this the source? deb http://packages.debian.org/unstable deb-src http://packages.debian.org/unstable or do I have to "/web"? My sources list follows.
