Re: [g-pear] The new ways for installing PEAR

BTW, after the 'go-pear' install (in which I answered 'Y' to let it install PEAR, DB, etc.), the following commands are fubared (perliminary analysis and patch later in the msg): % pear remote-list Available packages: =================== +---------+---------+ | Package | Version | | 0 | | | 1 | | (...) | 45 | | | 46 | | | 47 | | | 48 | | +---------+---------+ % pear list-updates [Error during execution of script] Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /export/dredox1/devel_server/php/lib/php/PEAR/Frontend/CLI.php on line 424 AVAILABLE UPGRADES (STABLE): ============================ +---------+---------+------+ | PACKAGE | VERSION | SIZE | +---------+---------+------+ And I think that the problem is that the script installs 'pear' in $prefix/bin which not always is the same as /usr/local/bin (as in my case). Even though it says at the end: (...) The 'pear' command is now at your service at /usr/local/bin/pear Run it without parameters to see the available actions, try 'pear list' to see what packages are installed, or 'pear help' for help (...) Even after copying manually (or w/ the patch below) pear to /usr/local/bin/pear, it still fubars the list with a bucnh of: "Notice: Undefined index: stable in Remote.php on line 158" when I do "pear remote-list" --- BEGIN PATCH --- % gdiff -u go-pear.php-new go-pear.php-orig --- go-pear.php-new Fri Jun 14 19:39:00 2002 +++ go-pear.php-orig Fri Jun 14 19:15:45 2002 @@ -50,8 +50,6 @@ # # Rev1 2002-03-24: Initial -ob_implicit_flush(); - if (!function_exists("version_compare")) { die( "Sorry!
