I am trying to install php5.3.6 on Lucid Lynx using oneiric repository to have everything in place on the ubuntu way and avoid manual package compiling.
I got the following error: Couldn't configure multiarch-support for libdb5.1, probably a dependency cycle.
The problem is libdb5.1 is depending on multiarch-support but multiarch support wants to install libdb5.1.
command used: sudo apt-get -t oneiric install php5 php5-common libapache2-mod-php5 When i try to install multiarch-support same way it says the same thing.
How should i solve this? The reaason for this is to change between versions of softwares on a clearer way without building custom deb packages from source.
Update 1
Yes, I am aware of this but i am just trying different scenarios because some of our development sites needed php5.2.x
before that I installed from karmic repository on ubuntu lucid lynx and worked perfectly.
So I just wanted to test what if I want the most fresh version from oneiric repository. I hoped there is something than compiling it manually from source that I also tested and worked perfectly.
