I just had a look at the package, but i'm not php fluent enough to fix it, so i prefer to let its maintainer fix it. I guess it looks that way! There may have been a decision to stop including the Date code, perhaps PHP's own built in functions superceeded them at somepoint. I'll do a little digging and see if I can find out, otherwise, I'll talk to the maintainer and see what I can work out. Perhaps I'll redo the package myself and pass it on to him. I admit I know nothing about pear. I have checked how PLD is doing it, and their list is about 180 php-pear-* packages. Is this the way to do it? I know this is not the answer to your question, but I have to ask this question anyhow. I personally don't know how to fix the problems reported with the php-pear package. Maybe J-M Dault knows? Or some other PHP guru? I'm just a silly packager anyhow...

I started a php script some time ago (last chrismas ?)to build a mandrake rpm from a pear package name (quite simple as a package is well described, with dependencies, test files, ...). That would generate a lot of packages so they couldn't be tested manually, so the script would have to automaticallay run the test programs. This could be done quite easily as pear has a command run-tests to run the regression tests. I didn't finish because not many people looked interested. The point is to decide if this is usefull as pear already has commands to install/update packages.
