Roadsend PHP Compiler Ubuntu 64bit deb package

I have built a binary package for Roadsend Compiler.  Unfortunately It does not include support for GTK 2 but the website says support is under development.  The PHP-Qt website also says its working on support for Roadsend.  I had trouble compiling in ODBC support so I expect this will not work.

For now Roadsend can be used to compile CLI apps or webapps where you want to protect the source code.  The Roadsend Compiler is completely independent from the Zend Engine and actually compiles to a binary file for your operating system / architecture so very different from other source code protection systems such as Zend Guard, Ioncube or Bcompiler.  Roadsend also can use its PHP engine to interpret and run scripts just like the Zend Engine.

You will need to install the Bigloo package first then the Roadsend package.

Tested on Karmic (9.10)

You will also have to change the LD_LIBRARY_PATH before it will work.  For some unknown reason putting this in .profile wont work so we are going to export this new path in our .bashrc file

$ echo 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib"' | tee -a ~/.bashrc
