cpanel "Build Matching PHP Binary" fails

[aww]

I was disappointed that I can't use the nifty-looking "Compile PHP" because of cpanel so I was very interested in the new feature under the new cpanel plugin "Build Matching PHP Binary"

Unfortunately that also stops due to an error. Is this possible to workaround?

Looks like you need to install freetype2 devel library, you can try build Apache with cPanel easy apache first, then build lsphp

Okay I'll give that a shot.

Any chance it's possible to allow us to specify a custom port for the link to the litepseed script? I turn off 7080 and use a custom SSL port because there's no login attempt monitoring or limit on your panel and I want to avoid hacks.
