Building Apache, PHP, MySQL on OS XS

Is there a resources somewhere that will explain to a 'newbie' how to build
Apache, PHP and MySQL on OS XS?

I have these on my OS XS and have done it a few times on OS X client.

My concerns are these:
Most instructions for say, MySQL, indicate small enough differences that it
gets built in another directory (usr/local as opposed to usr/share?).

I also am concerned that when I start to start to learn WO5 and use it with
MySQL, that if I have rebuilt MySQL in some place other then where Apple put
it... will it cause problems that I can't "get around" without loads of
emails to some nice person and loads of time spent.

I would like to be able to update or reinstall these, but to locate them
where Apple put them in the first place or else relocate them to a more
"proper" directory all together? -that would include getting rid of the old
ones, no? I don't want to end up with 2, e.g, MySQLs. I don't know these
answers, nor do I know [now] enough to change the install scripts *IF* that
is truly what's needed and/or to remove completely the old ones as well.

I guess the easiest answer is to wait until Apple updates them for me :-),
but I am inquiring in hopes of learning how to do this myself. I would
think that somewhere out there someone has done this and may have a set of
steps to follow? These three packages are certainly some if not "the" most
popular: Apache, PHP, MySQL.

I have contacted Marc Lyniage, since I used his sire several times on OS X
client. he said that when he gets a chance to work on OS XS he may update
his info (this is not a direct quote, obviously). I started to use his info
for MySQL but noticed an install path difference (see above).

Thanks for any tips,

Lloyd
