package.xml dir and file problems

Hi, sorry if this has been asked before, but I've been able to find very little information on it. I am trying to create a PEAR package for a library I have written, but am having trouble with the contents node. At the moment it doesn't quite seem possible to do what I want to do, so need to check. My source structure is like this (apologies for possible hacky ascii diagram) root package.xml -- bin ---- Binary scripts -- lib ---- LibraryName ------ LibraryFiles, etc... With the package.xml in the root I can't create a package that does not *also* include the lib folder. So when I install into PEAR it comes out as... $PEAR/lib/LibraryName Rather than... $PEAR/LibraryName A workaround to this I was using is to move the package.xml inside the lib folder, which then packages the files correctly. But, then I'm unable to access the bin folder to include the scripts in there. I've tried using PackageFileManager2 to create the package.xml, and also hand coding it, and changing around all the combinations of nesting for dir nodes, and baseinstalldir attributes but having absolutely no luck. Can anyone tell me if what I'm trying to do is even possible, or do I need to change my source layout to be more PEAR friendly? Cheers, rod.
