Greetings,

Im running Breezy Badger which is using php4. I'd like to install and use the latest version of MediaWiki which requires php5 (the installation of mediawiki stops and yells at me that I'm not running php5 and won't continue). Questions:

Can breezy badger handle php5?
-I noticed the ubuntuguide.org pages for 5.10 doesn't list it as an option. Only php4

If it can, can I follow the directions as listed on ubuntuguide.org for dapper or edgy for installing it?

Do I need to remove php4 before installing php5?
-If I do..how do I do that?

I`ll admit.. I'm terrified :) I have this server just the way I like it and haven't changed settings on it in quite awhile. (If it ain't broke..dont fix it i suppose). But I would like to upgrade to php5.

Suggestions? If need be, I can use an older version of mediawiki I suppose.
Thanks
