This function and others may not work with the stock PHP install on Centos/CPanel:  Fatal error:  Call to > undefined function imagecreatefromjpeg()

Even with libjpeg-devel installed it won't work because PHP was not compiled with jpeg support, so we have to do the dirty work ourselves :)

Here is the command/yum's I did to install missing libraries for PHP that configure will complain about (yes it is a one by one process).

yum install bzip2-devel curl-devel enchant-devel t1lib-devel gmp-devel gettext-devel libibcommon-devel openldap-devel libmcrypt-devel freetds-devel unixODBC-devel pspell-devel readline-devel libedit-devel recode-devel

imap error: (remove it unless you need it)

configure: error: utf8_mime2text() has new signature, but U8T_CANONICAL is missing. This should not happen. Check config.log for additional information.
 

Link error, with --with-xsl to fix the below error

usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../libxslt.so: undefined reference to `xmlXPathContextSetCache'

replace --with-xsl with --with-dom-xslt
 

Configure command for PHP below (it is fairly generic and should suit most uses/installs, but if it doesn't you need to add your own --with options).

./configure --with-openssl \
--with-kerberos \
--with-zlib \
--with-bz2 \
--with-curl \
--with-curlwrappers \
--with-libxml-dir \
