You should compile yourself from more updated source. PHP 5.2.10 patches
smoothly with php-5.2.10-fpm-0.5.13.diff. As for the 0.6.3 version,
which is a new branch, it seems to compile with PHP 5.2.10 as well
though I haven't done it on a Linux box (yet).

Add the Remi repository
(http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-5.rpm for
CentOS 5 or http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-4.rpm
for CentOS 4). It includes up-to-date versions of PHP, MySQL, and
phpMyAdmin (5.2.10 and 5.3.0, 5.1.39, 3.2.2).

I'm using this repo too. And the author of repo centos.alt.ru has more
than 10 own servers in production under php-fpm. nginx etc.
Also you could find latest nginx-devel, nginx-stable here.

I think this repos is quite stable.

You could look for the packages list here:
http://centos.alt.ru/pub/repository/centos/5/

And here's some instructions if you use yum and want the DAG repository.

# dag rpm repository
sudo nano /etc/yum.repos.d/dag.repo

[dag]
name=Dag RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise Linux
baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag
gpgcheck=1
rpm --import http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt

# Then run
yum check-update
yum search php

I can't comment on how DAG's php packages compare, but in general seems good.

Thanks for repos... But my boss insist on using php 5.1.6 from centos
base repo. Is there php-fpm patch for this version?

your boss is an idiot, tell him to get with the times. >=php-5.2 is what
you should be using.

Yeah I know.. but he is sure, that we need to use only software from
centos base repo.. because of it stability. So there is soon will be
centos 5.4 available, I hope there will be php 5.2.x . but now.. is
there "old patches"?? ...

PS: the main reason why he dont wont to switch, because I cant explain
which patches we need to use.. for example I have downloaded 2 php
sources from different repos... And there was different patches ..
that is the main reason of mistrust of "custom" build php... Is there
any official "patches" thread/bugtrack for php ? centos? Where I can
see which patches to apply?

a minor update would not bring you new version of softwares. It has only
bugfixes.
In another word, 5 series of CentOS and RHEL have 5.1.6 version of PHP
ONLY!!

You don't need any patches besides php-fpm if you use the patch and
suhosin is a good one.

Otherwise compile it yourself - i even have a build script I use for
centos/rhell. But I can't access it at the moment.

This is why people generally use Centos/RHEL - stability, and your
boss has a very good point.
I'd stick with Centos' stock mod_php, for stability's sake.
Be careful with repos, most of them conflict with each other and it's
easy to trash your system.
The only one I use (and recommend) is RPMForge
(http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/FAQ.php#B)

However, the base repos sacrifice "stability" with the ultimate in
stagnation, sadly.

I've never really had any issues with Ubuntu or a quicker repo update
process. I myself add 3-4 repos to a CentOS/RHELL install so I can
actually get packages I need and better updated ones. Sure if you like
two generations old Subversion or a generation old of Ruby that you
can't run things like Redmine with... stick with your stock repos :)

I don't like the direction this discussion is taking(flame alert!) :-)
The problem with RHEL's "old" packages has been debated and re-debated
many times on mailing lists and newsgroups.
Expream, maybe this read will clarify some of your problems
