    installed php-4.3.3RC1 on Suse 8.2

    I have installed php-4.3.3RC1 on Suse 8.2, and everything went fine
    even the make install, but I do not see the new version in yast2
    software packages, it still has the old version 4.3.1

    any ideas ? is there another step I need to take, how do I check what
    is really installed ?

    ps apache is 2.0.46 and mysql is 4.1.0

      I compiled my own, I have found a command php -v it tells me I have
      the version I want installed, which means that yast doesnt know about
      it, which is annoying but I can live with it
