Description Arenas Belon, Carlo Marcelo 2001-01-25 16:24:14 UTC 
for PEAR /usr/share/php ($datadir/php) is used, but this is patch is
incorrectly setting it to
$datadir/php4 (/usr/share/php4) breaking the PEAR.php generation and
posibly making installation harder than it should be

Comment 2 Arenas Belon, Carlo Marcelo 2001-01-25 19:52:54 UTC 
sadly, using $datadir lead to the problem explained on 24943, so this is not a
good solution.

Does 4.0.4pl1-4 from Raw Hide fix this problem?
Comment 8 Arenas Belon, Carlo Marcelo 2001-02-05 10:13:09 UTC 
nope, there is no fix on the latest -6 from rawhide.

on /usr/share/php/PEAR.php there is a wrong path for :

  define ('PEAR_INSTALL_DIR', '${prefix}/share/php4');

as a result the load of the corresponding Mail subclass on Mail::factory fails
when :

  $classfile = PEAR_INSTALL_DIR. '/Mail/' . $mailer_type. '.php';
Comment 9 Arenas Belon, Carlo Marcelo 2001-03-05 21:38:15 UTC 
php-4.0.4pl1-8 used the correct path for pear
