Hi all,
Even if my memory is not so bad, I've read the changelog to confirm what I'm expected to find:
It's a bit old, but on 2006-08-19 with version 0.5.2 I've decided to drop support of package xml 1.0
Perharps it was a bit too hurry.
Recently Jörg Wegner has detected a strange behaviour with PEAR_PackageUpdate (PPU).
While trying to upgrade thru the Web interface of PPU, with basic example pattern "ppuWebExample2.php", from
package File_Archive 1.5.3 (package xml 1.0)
to 1.5.4 (package xml 2.0) he got a wrong information about version installed.
Rather than see
Current version: 1.5.3
Release version: 1.5.4
he saw only
Current version: 1
Release version: 1.5.4
Even if it's not a major bug, I've decided to reimplement a little patch to catch package that still use package xml 1.0
