I'm following this guide: http://atik97.wordpress.com/2010/06/12/how-to-upgrade-to-php-5-3-in-ubuntu-9-10/

I've done all the steps, but it's still showing php 5.2.6 - any ideas?

I have also tried -cgi instead of -cli, neither have any effect.

update

I've tried rebooting the server to see if that would have any effect and unfortunately it didn't

update

Output of dpkg -l *php*:

The following commands and their outputs:

grep php53 /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://php53.dotdeb.org stable all
deb-src http://php53.dotdeb.org stable all

apt-cache search -f "libapache2-mod-php5"

update I've updated the question with more details on installed packages.
