error: field ‘st_atim’ has incomplete type FFMPEG

While installing ffmpeg-php-0.6.0  on centos server, if you may came across the below error , like ::

After looking up for hours, I found the issue that ffmpeg own time.h file was conflicting with centos own time.h file, unfortunately ffmpeg-php has not been updated in a long time, so decided to search ffmpeg php extension on github and I found a repo maintained by tony2001 who has made some changes to the original project and using his repo I’m able to install it  on CentOS-6.5  but I guess  it works on other centos versions too

Follow the steps below to install it

git clone https://github.com/pbek/ffmpeg-php.git
cd ffmpeg-php
phpize
./configure
make && make install
