Hi, I'm running php 4.1.2 on Mandrake 8.2. I am trying to install the pear package manager. After I run the go-pear script using lynx, nothing is installed! Output from one attempt is shown below. BTW - I have tried answering either 'Y' or 'N' to installation of the bundled pear packages and the same result occurs. I appreciate any suggestions.
