PHP5 Zip Support on OpenBSD 4.5
17 Aug 2009This is a cheat sheet on getting PHP5 on OpenBSD to have zip support. I needed this to get CiviCRM to work with Joomla.
First off install some require packages, including the zziplib package:
<br /> export PKG_PATH=http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/OpenBSD/4.5/packages/i386/<br /> pkg_add -v zziplib<br /> pkg_add -v autoconf-2.62<br /> Now download and extract the PECL zip package:
<br /> mkdir /usr/local/src/<br /> cd /usr/local/src/<br /> wget http://pecl.php.net/get/zip<br /> tar zxvf zip<br /> cd zip-1.

Google Latitude Google Latitude is their location and status message product. The application up until now has been available on other phone platforms such as Android, but lacking on iPhone.
In the mean time, iPhone users have had to look elsewhere.
