PEAR dependancies broken - was Re: [PEAR-DEV] Re: [PEAR-CVS] cvs: pear /DB_DataObject package.xml

This one is really a number of PEAR bugs - 3026/3027 a) it should not be possible to upload a release with 'not' on the PHP side... b) the 'ne' test is not available on pearweb - hence a replacement release cant be done. c) the 'ne' test is not available in the packager (see 3027) I've pulled the release, but that still leaves us between a rock & a hard place - DataObjects is broken by php4.3.10 pear db is broken by php5.0.3 so we either end up with bug reports about un-installable packages or un-usable ones :) Regards Alan Norbert Mocsnik wrote:

Hi Alan, Could you take a look at this please? Others also reported the issue on #pear. 1.7.2 installed fine. Same result if I uninstall dbdo first.
