Theres not much point in trying to install it on
Debian stable as it's based on PHP4. If Covide says it
needs PHP5 then you need PHP5. I forget if you had
problems on Fedora Core, or even on Ubuntu, but I'm
sure it would run on both.

The alternative would be to move to Debian testing as
you already have Debian. Debian testing is as stable
as everybody else's stable. Simply change the word
'sarge' or 'stable' to 'testing' for every instance in
your /etc/apt/sources.list, then do an apt-get update
and and an apt-get dist-upgrade (note it's
dist-upgrade, not an upgrade you're doing a whole
system upgrade).

PHP5 is in Debian testing. See how you get on from
there.

you if you reply ;).
