PHP 4.4.9 for Debian Wheezy / Jessie

This recipe is for compiling a Debian Wheezy/Jessie compatible version of PHP 4.4.9

Debootstrap a Debian Wheezy

debootstrap --include=build-essential wheezy php4strap
chroot php4strap

Download and install PHP 4.4.9

mkdir /tmp/php4-build
cd /tmp/php4-build
wget http://de.php.net/get/php-4.4.9.tar.bz2/from/this/mirror -O php-4.4.9.tar.bz2
tar jxf php-4.4.9.tar.bz2

Install PHP building dependencies

cat /etc/apt/sources.list | sed "s/^deb /deb-src /" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get build-dep php5

Create some links

ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjpeg.so /usr/lib/
ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng.so /usr/lib/
ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexpat.so /usr/lib/
ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmysqlclient.so /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so

Configure PHP4

Notice that some common features are not enabled, this is because are not supported by related libraries that ship with modern Debian releases

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php4 \
            --enable-force-cgi-redirect \
            --enable-fastcgi \
            --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/etc/php4/cgi \
            --with-gettext \
            --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/lib \
            --with-mysql=/usr \
            --with-pear \
            --with-png-dir=/usr/local/lib \
            --with-xml \
            --with-zlib \
            --with-zlib-dir=/usr/include \
            --enable-bcmath \
            --enable-calendar \
            --enable-magic-quotes \
            --enable-sockets \
            --enable-track-vars \
            --enable-mbstring \
            --enable-memory-limit \
            --with-bz2 \
            --enable-dba \
            --enable-dbx \
            --with-iconv \
            --with-mime-magic \
            --disable-shmop \
            --enable-sysvmsg \
            --enable-wddx \
            --with-xmlrpc \
            --enable-yp \
            --with-gd

Compile and install PHP4

make
make install
strip /usr/local/php4/bin/*

Grab the binaries

exit
scp -r php4strap/usr/local/php4 root@destination-server:/usr/local/

I needed to install some extra dependecies on my server
```
apt-get install libmysqlclient18 libpng12-0 libjpeg8
```
