And pecl is available as of PHP x.x.x? What should people use with versions <= PHP x.x.x? Or is this an issue, which Version if PEAR is installed? Think, that should be in the docs.
PEAR 1.4.0 or earlier, available in all recent (and supported) PHP releases. The installation of the pecl command is done by the installer (gopear or with php releases). The question form my POV and maybe our users remain: Installed with php-release: pecl-command is available as of PHP x.x.x? "in all recent (and supported) PHP releases" is a vague term. There must be a PHP Version we can name, where pecl-command is installed first time, no? We should offer this piece of info to our readers :-)
No idea, 5.1.0? However, it is more important to introduce the notion of *installer* and package versions and not only php versions. There is more pear releases than php releases. Some (important) bugs can be fixed between two PHP releases, just like bugs in extensions can be fixed in a PECL release. --Pierre
