Visit the libpng, libjpeg and PCRE homepages and download the latest release available for both.

(Like in the Leopard tutorial, I assume you have installed the Xcode & related developer utilities and that all downloads are saved in the 'Downloads' folder in your home).

To compile PHP, locally installed copies of libpng, libjpeg and pcre are required so let's started with that: I wanted to have the same extensions and options that Apple's PHP 5.3 build had, so I started by viewing the output of phpinfo() and copying the configure command. Since I am currently building and testing Ubercart-enabled sites, my only remaining option was to downgrade to PHP 5.2.10.

I've been trying to get my local Drupal installations working, and although the patch from post #84 works pretty well (when applied to a D6 CVS checkout), Ubercart is still nonfunctional. While I no longer have to rebuild the extension manually like on Leopard, these changes to PHP brought around a different problem: Drupal is currently not compatible with PHP 5.3 ( #360605).

Since my update to Snow Leopard, I was pleasantly surprised to find that Apple has updated PHP to version 5.3 and also included the GD extension.
