    If you're using tasksel You'll find php scattered throughout. However, if you're trying to use php-cgi, Ubuntu packages have that already configured.

    sudo apt-get install php5-cgi libapache2-mod-php5

    You can then enable apache to use it with:

    sudo a2enmod php5-cgi
sudo service apache2 restart

    Very VERY rarely will you ever need to copy files around to get something packaged working.
