Hi,
I'm trying to package phpDocumentor, and the command "pear package" will not
work because I am not root on joshuaeichorn.com, and so permissions are
wrong. Josh has upgraded everything to the latest version (including
Archive_Tar, thanks for the fix).
I understand the security concerns. Perhaps allowing pear package would be
possible for the next release? Even if a separate script is included just
for users that allows only package, or pear is set to only install in the
user's dir any new pear packages.
Thanks,
Greg
