I've spent the last several hours trying to get the pear installer working on mac os x, but with no luck. $ pear install config Did not download dependencies: pear/XML_Parser, pear/XML_Util, use -- alldeps or --onlyreqdeps to download automatically pear/Config can optionally use package "pear/XML_Parser" pear/Config can optionally use package "pear/XML_Util" downloading Config-1.10.4.tgz ... Starting to download Config-1.10.4.tgz (23,059 bytes) ........done: 23,059 bytes then I never comes back and php takes up all the CPU. I suspect it has something to do with Archive_Tar, because when I tar xzvf package files I get errors about Zero-blocks. Any ideas?

Hi Ryan, There is a bug report of a similar problem on Debian, so I am beginning to suspect it is a bogus zlib. Try $ pear install -Z config and let me know how it turns out

Successful. So, its some zlib problem? Here's my zlib stuff from phpinfo(): zlib

ZLib Support                        enabled
Stream Wrapper support    compress.zlib://
Stream Filter support           zlib.inflate, zlib.deflate
Compiled Version                1.1.4
Linked Version                    1.2.1

Directive                                    Local Value    Master Value
zlib.output_compression            Off                    Off
zlib.output_compression_level    -1                    -1
zlib.output_handler                    no value        no value

It seems weird that the two versions would be different.

This is odd, perhaps check with the internals folks and see if there is any insight on this. Thanks, Greg
