The current system has a problem with configuration files,
so it can only install sample/documentation configuration
or it would overwrite any settings the user has done...
In this case, it needs copying to php.ini to take effect.

Using package managers such as RPM/DEB handles all these,
and systems such as Ports uses install/deinstall scripts.
