Hi Andrei, Unfortunately, there is no system in place yet to implement easy creation of Console_Getopt2 at pearweb, but it would be best to do it this way. Alternately, why not create a global flag variable $GLOBALS['_CONSOLE_GETOPT_BC'] = true; and if the BC flag is set, do the old behavior, otherwise do the new behavior? This way, you needn't do version 2.0 at all. Users can select the behavior they want via the flag. Greg Andrei Zmievski wrote:

The only sensible solution is to release Console_Getopt2 - this fits in with the BC guidelines, and then PEAR can depend on it, and other packages can take their time to update their dependencies. What do you think Andrei?
Do you mean a whole separate package called Console_Getopt2 or just version 2.0? If the latter, I think it's fine. Should I go ahead and release it then? - Andrei
