Xdebug and APC on openSUSE
I'm running openSUSE on my developer machine. Unfortunately, the default openSUSE installation does not include the Xdebug PHP extension (for debugging of course), nor APC (for caching PHP opcode). However, this can easily be remedied.
openSUSE has a PHP extensions repository ( http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/php:/extensions/ ), which you can add to your software repositories database and from which you can download and install Xdebug and APC. Just use ?zypper? (or YAST if you are more GUI oriented), a command line tool for handling package repositories and installation:
$ zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/php:/extensions/openSUSE_11.3/ PHP5Extensions $ zypper in php5-xdebug $ zypper in php5-APC
You can find the Xdebug configuration file at /etc/php5/conf.d/xdebug.ini
That was simple, wasn't it?

not simple
I agree, simple think is to execute commands perhaps by copy paste but cant find the internals of repos, specially if moved from a other kind of distro
not simple
That is not simple at all. How in the world is u anyone to know without spending time searching for ways to install xdebug until they stumle into this website. If you truly wanted to sound this easy, you would have to tell us how you found this repository.
Linux is definitely a pain to work with. In windows world, you knew where the installable is and you run it with windows installer. Bam! in under few minutes. I spent atleast half hour on this and have spent more than 4 hours just setting up the eclipse.
People like you hype linux so much and so it so easy and elegant. Fact of the matter is it does not come close to any other superior OS like Solaris, Windows or even Mac.
surprise!
Hi mate, long time no-see!
Maybe a bit off topic but why you're using opensuse? Just fav distro or all eZ folks are forced to use it? ;)
P.S.
Would be handy if you could see the blog entry you're writing your comment for
