Once you have downloaded code, you have to follow README instructions:

  1. launch ./do_build sdl
  2. if this operation succeeded you have in your current dir the file sdl.so, that's the binary extension ready to be installed into php extension dir. See php.ini in your system, or using "php -i" command to see where the php extension dir is;
  3. copy as root the sdl.so file into that directory
