That you very much

The line extension dir line in the php.ini is:

extension_dir = "./"

What value should this have?

How come it is looking for:
20041030-debug
in the first place when extension_dir is ./?
Where does it get that value from?

The directory  /usr/local/lib/php/20041030

dns1# cd /usr/local/lib/php/20041030
dns1# ls -l
total 130
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  89839 Sep  3 18:50 pcre.so
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  40993 Sep  3 18:51 xml.so

Thanks again
