When installing fileinfo on php5.2 on ubuntu and having a problem with phpize,
you must also install the php5-dev package..
apt-get install php5-dev
Then verify if 'phpize' is in your PATH

for gentoo you will need to emerge pecl-fileinfo
on opensuse 10.2 systems you'll need the file-devel package.
For Kubuntu systems and probably most other Linuxes, after installing libmime-devel, I could successfully install the PECL Fileinfo package.
$ sudo apt-get install libmagic-dev
$ sudo pecl install Fileinfo
