Which PHP version do you currently have, and which version do you want to use?– pkhamreOct 23, 2012 at 6:21

I'm using (PHP 5.3.3-1ubuntu9.10 with Suhosin-Patch) and want to use 5.3.18 which is the newest at the time of writing.– MagicOct 23, 2012 at 8:28

1I suggest you update your ubuntu to 12.04 and go with the 5.3.10 provided there. Bugfixes and security issues from upstream are backported to the Ubuntu package.– pkhamreOct 23, 2012 at 8:33

You explain that you use the php-5.3.3-1ubuntu9.10 package. I then assume that you use Ubuntu 9.10 which is an unsupported version of Ubuntu. I suggest you simply upgrade your box to the latest LTS (12.04) and use the provided package (version 5.3.10) of PHP.
You can patch PHP 5.3.18 only with a modified Suhosin patch. The original one is not working. See here: http://www.itkb.ro/kb/linux/patch-suhosin-pentru-php-5318

For PHP 5.3.21 here is another updated patch itkb.ro/kb/linux/patch-suhosin-pentru-php-5321– user158647Feb 12, 2013 at 14:16
You can either use a ppa like this that tries to keep up with current releases or wait till it hits the repository you are using. Or go to php and install from the rpms they offer.
