Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: php-geshi

Package php-geshi installs into a location not specified in php.ini
installed with apache2 package and php5-cli.

Most other PHP addons install into /usr/share/php, whereas php-geshi
installs into /usr/share/php-geshi.  This could have been a typo while
extracting the addon while creating the package, but it makes inclusion
of geshi somewhat of a pain and quite non-portable.  You'd need to
update the ini's include_path variable in every script and can't use
include('geshi/geshi.php'), which is expected most places.
Alternatively, you could require an explicit full path in inclusion.
Neither of these options, though, are optimal.

The simplest fix is to move /usr/share/php-geshi to
/usr/share/php/geshi, which would correct all problems.

This is on a fully-updated hardy 8.04.1 install.  php-geshi is
1.0.7.20-1.  Also, I have extracted the current php-geshi from intrepid
(1.0.7.22-1), and can confirm that it has the same problem.
