Hello, I need to be able to use the php-cli with php5. Currently, if I use php-cli as normal it works just fine. However, if I need to use a script that requires heightened permissions via the sudo command then I get an error about upgrading my php-cli to version 5 or greater. I am running a Dreamhost VPS.
