How to install PECL extensions on ubuntu?
I'm really new to Ubuntu I wanted to use the PECL id3 package so I shifted from Windows to Ubuntu.
I installed php5, apache2, libcurl, php5-dev, php-pear but when I try to install the php_http extension it is giving an error. It asked for zlib and libcurl and I just hit return key to select the default then this happens with an error at the end:
maniteja@maniteja:~$ sudo pecl install pecl_http

Answer
Funny you should mention that, I just dealt with the same thing a few hours ago. You will have to install one more dependency, libpcre3-dev:
sudo apt-get install libpcre3-dev
