After I installed PHP5 I wanted to try out APD, since it’s mentioned in George’s book. However it has proven harder than I thought to install the PECL extension. Doing a “pecl install apd” gives me this.
I have no idea what’s wrong and therefore no idea how to fix it – any help is appreciated.

Did you try using APD on a PHP4 installation? I guess there are some incompatibilities with PHP5…
Havn’t tried that, the word on the street is that APD indeed doesn’t work with PHP5 (from the pecl-dev mailing list), but what I don’t get is why George talks to much about it in his “PHP5 book” when it doesn’t work with PHP5 – and George is even the lead developer :) Maybe it worked in PHP5.0.0, but not in PHP 5.0.1?
Install from CVS HEAD branch.
