Re: TESTERS ONLY: new-gopear.php is available in cvs

Hi, I just ran the new gopear under OS X 10.3.8 (Panther). In cli mode it works well. In web mode when an error occurs the page has a weird layout. I'll send you the screenshot via another mail. When no error occurs things proceed smoothly. There might be a refresh problem from ProgressBar though, under safari it makesone big jump to 70% then nothing until a 100% is reached. Now onto fixing my install since I forgot to to pear -c newconf it overrode my conf :) Good job Greg, now windows will likely be the problem, there are a few issues lurking with windows iirc. Arnaud.
