After compiling PHP from source are the devel libraries still needed? For example, I am building a newer version of PHP from source than is on our dev servers. I installed alot of [extension i.e. mysql, postgresql, curl, etc]-devel packages in order for the configure from the dev server setup to work. Do i still need these after php has compiled? For example could I make a distro and then distribute the PHP distro to another server without needing these devel dependencies?
I am a bit of a noob to this.
