I'm currently running 5.3.17 and I'd like to update to the latest stable version. I've looked up a bunch of guides and they all have me doing it manually using wget. I'd like to do it all through zypper so that I can update it using 'zypper update' like I do with most everything else.
How can I update php to the latest stable using zypper?
Option 1: Add some repository with the version you want/need.
Option 2: Build a rpm/package of your own from source and install/update this as often as you like.
