php5-mongo and pecl mongo-stable

Do I need to get the debian package "php5-mongo" if I've already successfully installed mongoDB using PECL? What's the difference? (and should this question be migrated?)

The difference is the same difference as installing a perl module from CPAN, or a debian (or other OS) package. Its more a matter of preference, or who has the most up to date version.

Generally speaking, I prefer to install my perl modules through CPAN, and my php modules through PECL as opposed to the OS.

shouldn't make much difference unless your debian version of the driver is less than 1.0.11
