WL: PHP-FPM 5.3

[Kevin Chang]

DESCRIPTION:
PHP-FPM <http://php-fpm.org/> was included as part of php-5.3, designed to streamline management of FastCGI worker pools.

REASON:
It'd make it a lot better for managing multiple FastCGI pools with separate permission sets than through spawn-fcgi init scripts.

All it takes is to add --enable-fpm to the ./configure arguments.

I'm interested in this package too, i will help testing the pacakges.

FPM support has been added to php53 as of 5.3.3-4.ius which has just been pushed to ius-testing for RHEL 5.5 and above. Please note that currently our ius-5 (standard) repo is building against RHEL 5.4 (that is another story all together). We would really appreciate any help with testing that anyone can provide as our knowledge of FPM is limited.

You will need to change your yum config to reference the '5.5' repo via a baseurl (rather than stock mirrorlist) in /etc/yum.repos.d/ius-testing.repo:

baseurl=http://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/testing/Redhat/5.5/$basearch

You will want to comment out the 'mirrorlist' line. In the future, the base 'el5' repo will always be in sync with rhel 5 latest but currently this is held up but internal infrastructure 'stuff'.

This has been pushed to ius-el5-stable.
