Re: Patch version 2: automatic dependency resolution, and new install options --alldeps, plus order-independent uninstall

Hi Laurent, Did you download the entire contents of php-src/PEAR from CVS as well? The package-PEAR.xml only tells the installer which files to install, it won't cause the automatic download of them from CVS. I'd just checkout php-src/pear. Greg Laurent Laville wrote:

Hi Greg,

I'd love it if a few brave souls would be willing to back up their existing pear/PEAR directory and try this patch out, to assist in the development.

As i've promised few days ago, i took time to see now this patch, and i run in trouble when i tried to install it. step 1: i've downloaded from CVS the version 1.67 http://cvs.php.net/cvs.php/php-src/pear/package-PEAR.xml step 2: pear upgrade tmp\package-PEAR.xml and i got error message below: failed to write E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\data\PEAR\.tmppackage.dtd Then i switch verbose mode on level 3 for more details and got E:\EasyPHP\php>pear upgrade tmp\package-PEAR.xml adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\data\PEAR\package.dtd adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\data\PEAR\template.spec adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\System.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Autoloader.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Command.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Command\Auth.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Command\Build.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Command\Common.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Command\Config.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Command\Install.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Command\Package.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Command\Registry.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Command\Remote.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Command\Mirror.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Common.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Config.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Dependency.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Frontend\CLI.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Builder.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Installer.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Packager.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Registry.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\PEAR\Remote.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\OS\Guess.php adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear.bat adding to transaction: delete E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\pearcmd.php rolling back 28 file operations failed to write E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\data\PEAR\.tmppackage.dtd When i have a look on file E:\EasyPHP\php\pear\data\PEAR\package.dtd it exists and with write permittions.
