Hi Alan: > New releases of packages have minimum version php 5.? In package.xml, > So in theory the pear installer will refuse to install them on php 4 > sites. Yes, that's possible. And I was going to suggest it as well. Folks still using PHP 4 are welcome to do so and they'll still be able to use PEAR and its packages, just the older versions that they have now. This seems fine to me. If you're stuck on PHP 4, you know you're using outdated, buggy software. PEAR will continue to work for them, but it too will be the outdated, buggy version.
