How to update php version of mongo driver in ubuntu?

Question

linux

In general, I have a driver 1.5.4
I want the latest version.
apt-get install php5-mongo installed it just right for me!
I removed it via apt-get remove and installed via pecl
Reloaded php-fpm
I see 1.5.4 again in phpinfo()
According to the documentation there is at least 1.5.5 for sure, if not more.

Answer 1

Apparently, version 1.5.5 is not yet in the repository, since it was released in the 2014-07-30 release :
pecl.php.net/package/mongo
repositories.
You can read how to assemble by hand here:
ru2.php.net/manual/en/mongo.installation.php In
principle, nothing complicated, you just need to look at the output ./configurefor missing libraries (often these are *-dev packages). They can usually be delivered via apt .
