+ This is the recommended method of installing PHP on OpenBSD, as it will have
+ the latest patches and security fixes applied to it by the maintainers. To
+ use this method, ensure that you have a <ulink url="&url.openbsd.ports;">
+ recent ports tree</ulink>. Then simply find out which flavors you wish
+ to install, and issue the <command>make install</command> command. Below
+ is an example of how to do this.

+ <simpara>
+ There are pre-compiled packages available for your release
+ of <ulink url="&url.openbsd;">OpenBSD</ulink>. These integrate
+ automatically with the version of Apache installed with the OS.
+ However, since there are a large number of options (called
+ <emphasis>flavors</emphasis>) available for this port,
+ you may find it easier to compile it from source using the ports tree.
+ Read the <ulink url="&url.openbsd.packages;">packages(7)</ulink>
