Getting gearman to install on Ubuntu Getting the gearman PHP PECL package to build on Ubuntu is problematic with many unaccounted for dependency issues. I only made a couple changes when following the instructions from JSJoy as I am running Karmic rather than Lucid I changed the apt-get sources to: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gearman-developers/ppa/ubuntu karmic main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/gearman-developers/ppa/ubuntu karmic main My sources file was also located at /etc/apt/sources.list and not /etc/sources.list as stated in the original post from JSJoy.
