Issue
I am trying to install this http://fr2.php.net/manual/en/book.ssh2.php on a Centos 5 (a fork of RHEL 5).
I installed libssh2 (yum install libssh2) which is located in /usr/lib, and when I install SSH2 extension (via pecl install -f ssh2) I get this message
checking for ssh2 files in default path... not found configure: error: The required libssh2 library was not found. You can obtain that package from http://sourceforge.net/projects/libssh2/ ERROR: `/tmp/pear/download/ssh2-0.11.0/configure --with-ssh2=/usr' failed
If I set /usr/lib, I get the same message
ERROR: `/tmp/pear/download/ssh2-0.11.0/configure --with-ssh2=/usr/lib' failed
Where is the problem?
Solution
Installing libssh2 via tar.gz from http://sourceforge.net/projects/libssh2/ help a lot (--with-ssh2=/usr/local/include/).
But :
yum install libssh2-devel
...is a better idea.
