PHP Gettext Extension

[PatRoy]

G'Day!

Trying to get an image Gallerie PHP application running on HPUX's Apache 2.0.59.07.03 with PHP 5.2.6 (the one that comes with Apache).

This is the exact problem I'm having:
http://gallery.menalto.com/node/29838

Basically, the PHP Gettext extension is missing. I need to recompile PHP with-gettext. I don't like the approach of having to built or own version of PHP... Isn't there a way to get that extension within the built in PHP provided by HP?

If anyone can enlighten me?

Thanks so much.

appears it can be / should be loaded separately. see this for more info:

Not sure I get you... I can't see how to make it work through that message post... I can't / don't want to start modifying the source code of the Gallery software either...

All I know is that PHP needs to be compiled with the --with-gexttext option, which doesn't seem to be the case in the hpuxwsAPACHE depot provided by HP.

I'm trying to find a way to get it in there, without the need of compiling my own PHP from source into let's say /opt/php-5.2.9/. It'll become a nightmare afterward handling versions... Apache's gonna be f*cked up whenever we want to upgrade it, etc.

Thanks again... P.
