如何在Ubuntu 12.04机器上为PHP安装libpuzzle？

Question

I'm trying to install libpuzzle PHP extension but I don't seem to be able to get it to work.

I have tried to follow the following instructions:

The Puzzle library can also be used through PHP, using a native extension. Prerequisites are the PHP headers, libtool, autoconf and automake. Here are the basic steps in order to install the extension:

(on OpenBSD: export AUTOMAKE_VERSION=1.9 ; export AUTOCONF_VERSION=2.61)

cd php/libpuzzle

phpize

./configure --with-libpuzzle

make clean

make

make install

If libpuzzle is installed in a non-standard location, use: ./configure --with-libpuzzle=/base/directory/for/libpuzzle

Then edit your php.ini file and add:

extension=libpuzzle.so

However when I try to run "./configure --with-libpuzzle" I get the following error: configure: error: Please reinstall the libpuzzle distribution

Could someone point me in the right direction please.

Is there a reason you are compiling from source when it is available in the Ubuntu repositories?

sudo aptitude install libpuzzle-php

Or apt-get if you like that instead:

sudo apt-get install libpuzzle-php

If you somehow did not see it in the repository do a search like this:

sudo aptitude search libpuzzle

Which on my 12.04 install shows this:
