I have been trying this from a week now still couldnt find an answer for this when i try this sudo pecl install id3 this error happens
downloading id3-0.2.tgz ...
Starting to download id3-0.2.tgz (20,693 bytes)
.....done: 20,693 bytes
4 source files, building
running: phpize
Cannot find config.m4.
Make sure that you run '/usr/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module
If the command failed with 'phpize: not found' then you need to install php5-dev packageYou can do it by running 'apt-get install php5-dev' as a root userERROR: `phpize' failed
please help !!! I have already installed php5-dev.

You will need to download id3 first using:
pecl download id3-alpha
tar -zxvf id3*.tgz
vim id3.c
Have to change in line 196:
function_entry id3_functions[ ] = {
into
zend_function_entry id3_functions[ ] = {
phpize
./configure
make
make test
make install
Then add the id3.so into your php.ini file
and restart apache
This is a known issue, see https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=58650
Tried, tested, confirmed workaround:
pear update-channels
pecl install --force id3
cd /build/buildd/php*/pear-build-download
tar -zxvf id3*.tgz
cd id3*/
phpize
./configure
make
make test
make install
Add the id3.so extension to your php.ini file:
nano /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
like:
extension=id3.so
to the Dynamic Extensions section.
Then, restart apache so that the new configuration can be loaded:
service apache2 restart
ensure that everything went well and there are no errors, by checking the apache error log file:
tail -25 /var/log/apache2/error.log
Success should have a similar output:
[notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down
[notice] Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.3.10-1ubuntu3.9 with Suhosin-Patch configured -- resuming normal operations
