At the moment I don't know if I can unload Fb2.0 to install
interbase-php5, and then try to reinstall fb2.0 from rpm or tar-gz.
Maybe I'll have more luck.
At the moment I downloaded all php-5.2.5 tarball, but I need only to
build interbase.so.
I find needed sources in ./ext/interbase but a first try to build all
sorted that mechanism is almost cryptic and ./configure stops
complainig that "C compiler (gcc ) cannot build executables" (????)
Seems Ubuntu tries to tangle ever the simplest thing...
I'll do a better search in group archives...
Ciao.
