PEAR 1.4.7 is out. (With it, so is PEAR_Command_Packaging which requires PEAR 1.4.7 and will help to further improve the PEAR RPM generation tools; notwithstanding the fact that bug #176725 is now closed, further improvements can be made to get generated specs closer to Fedora guidelines)
OK, this is slightly too late for FC5 since we're in release freeze now, but it can go in as an update. BTW - I did add %{_libdir}/php/pear to the php package now too, is that being used for the .xml files?
No worries. Roll on FC5 final. As for the XML files of PEAR packages there is still only php-pear-DB in Extras; from the changelog of that package: * Tue Jan 24 2006 Tim Jackson <rpm.uk> 1.7.6-4 - Move package XML file to _libdir/php/pear rather than _var/lib/pear :)
PEAR 1.4.9 is out now with some important fixes. Useful reference to PLD spec file which uses the standard tarball instead of .phar installer to package up PEAR: http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/SPECS/php-pear-PEAR.spec
Upstream have verified that http://pear.php.net/install-pear-nozlib.phar is a supported location which always contains a PHAR of the latest version. See http://news.php.net/php.pear.dev/42210.
I've prepare a lots of php-pear-XXX rpm for the extras (the ones that were included in php-pear-5.0.4 in FC4 and are missing in FC5). Using pear 1.4.6 produce some errors and if the installation works, in some case uninstall is impossible (ex : php-pear-Net-SMTP, Bug # 190958). All works perfectly with version 1.4.9. This update will really be helpful.
Has someone got updated patches for 1.4.9? It doesn't build by just updating to the latest .phar.
Yes. SPEC : http://remi.collet.free.fr/rpms/SPEC/php-pear-1.4.9-remi.spec SRPM : http://remi.collet.free.fr/rpms/SRPMS/php-pear-1.4.9-4.fc5.remi.src.rpm Only missing 2 things The RPM should own %{_datadir}/pear/.pkgxml (bug #190252) A patch to then template.spec to produce spec which use this dir.
OK, thanks. Built and should show up in Raw Hide today. Any comments?
Really great. Probably too late... but : SPEC : http://remi.collet.free.fr/rpms/SPEC/php-pear-1.4.9-remi.spec SRPM : http://remi.collet.free.fr/rpms/SRPMS/php-pear-1.4.9-5.fc5.remi.src.rpm (updated patches to use %{_datadir}/pear/.pkgxml)
Thanks. php-pear-1.4.9-1 is now on its way to updates-testing (and Raw Hide) - please test it out!
Thanks for the patches.
