Is there a good reason for needing this pear package?

It is old and it has been replaced with MDB2 some time ago. Why don't you use it instead of trying to install DB.
The issue here isn't what package is being installed. The issue is that PEAR segfaults no matter what I try to install. PECL works just fine (at least I was able to install something with it.)
Obviously something went wrong while installing PHP and you will have to find this because this probably the reason pear segfaults.
Did you run make test before installing? (makes sure everything went well)
You know you don't need pear binary to use a pear's package right? (it's pure PHP after all)
