Do some maintainers (maybe > even me included) do something wrong in their package.xml? To be more verbose: The probelm is, that if you define a file/dir as role="doc" the installer switches the install root to [PEAR_DIR]/docs/[PACKAGE] and then you most probably have some files and directories in a docs directory, and if you do *not* specify install-as="" in the package.xml the installer just concatenates the pathes: [PEAR_DIR]/docs/[PACKAGE]/docs and installs everything up there. Yet we might change the installers behaviour to omit the root directory "docs" for file/directories with role="doc" and resp. the other category(ies?) "tests" as well. Currently you can override this behaviour by defining something like the following in your package.xml: <file role="doc" install-as="examples/simple.php"> docs/examples/simple.php </file> > Stefan Regards, -- Michael - < mike(@)php.net >
