I am putting a web server together and will be uising SuSE 9.1.  I want to use
php5, but there are no suse rpms available.  I am used to compiling my own
software from source, but I am not used to the whole rpm thing.  Do I have to
figure out where suse sticks everything and make sure I get it in the same
directories?  If so, any shortcuts on how to find where everything gets put
in standard suse setup?  I'd rather use official rpms so YOU could
autoupdate, but I gather that we won't see those for 9.1. Finally, since I
have php4 on the box, do I need to uninstall it or tell the suseconfig or rpm
databases about my php 5 install?

Thanks,
