I had to uninstall the php 4.2.2(that came along with linux
installation) to install 4.3.3 for some of my new applications to
work. The uninstallation went fine and the installation of 4.3.3 was
done in the following sequence after cd'ing into the php directory
./configure
make
make install
every thing seemed to go fine..
When i tried to see if package php is installed using
rpm -q php
I get the following message
package php not installed..
Why is this so? Can any one help pls?
Thanks..

that doesn't mean you can't use it --
you may want to try using apt-get and
synaptic in the future ( automated package
download and install ) HOWEVER, their packages
aren't always the latest and greatest.
Use "checkinstall" instead of "make install".
You get an rpm than
