Hello all, please have a look at http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=13017 in php 5.3, calling a method statically with call_user_func(array($class, $method)) will fail if it is not declared static with the keyword. This is true for the validatexml functions in pear installer tasks. Since we still support php4, we can't just change it. Currently, php5_3 still allows foo::bar() be called without static keyword, but that will change soon (helly is on that) and before 5.3 is released. So we need to find a better way to call those methods, or make pear for php < 5.3 only, or drop support for php4 in pear1 with 1.7.0. -- Regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen Christian Weiske
