    Compiling in GD support

    Hi all. Have a site running jpgraph on PHP5/Apache2, and to make use of the
    anti-aliasing functions of JPGraph, it requires the GD library to be a part
    of PHP at copilation, rather than through php-gd.

    I am running debian, and installed/update php, apache, etc using the package
    system and apt-get. I have compiled from source before, but am wondering
    about moving forward... i.e. if I compile php with gd, when debian releases
    the next php version as a package, I won't be able to do the simple + clean
    apt-get -upgrade... correct? I''l have to continually get php source as it
    gets updated and compile in gd for each upgrade?

    Am I completely off-base or oversimplifying here? End game is compiled gd
    support vs. ease of maintenance/upgrade path.

    Any comments appreciated!

      You need to be asking this on the Debian user's mailing list, not here.
