How to install PHP 5.6 on Raspbian wheezy?

I was wondering about how to install PHP 5.6.x on my Raspberry Pi. Currently version 5.4.41 is installed and because of the new specs i'd like to upgrade to 5.6.10. I've seen this tutorial but the console's output tells me something went wrong.

pi@raspberry:~$ sudo apt-get update

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

What's the problem here?

EDIT: Am I really getting downvotes here? For asking a question?

I had the same problem and I solved it this way:

# Get the PHP source
# You can find the latest version number on the PHP download page: http://php.net/downloads.php
# Change `nl1` to your nearest mirror. Find the mirror list here: http://php.net/mirrors.php.
wget http://nl1.php.net/distributions/php-5.6.13.tar.bz2

# Unpack
tar -xvjf php-5.6.13.tar.bz2

cd php-5.6.13

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
./configure

# If on the Raspberry Pi 2
make -j4
# Otherwise
make

sudo make install

# Reboot to make sure changes are effective
sudo reboot

# Check PHP version
php -v
