Hello

I've just stumbled over the fact that the PEAR package is not installable on
the current Debian stable release because:

# pear install Apache_log4php-2.0.0-incubating-pear.tgz 
parsePackageName(): only one version/state delimiter "-" is allowed in 
"Apache_log4php-2.0.0-incubating-pear.tgz"
This package.xml requires PEAR version 1.8.0 to parse properly, we are version 
1.7.1
Parsing of package.xml from file "/tmp/pear/download/package.xml" failed
Cannot initialize 'Apache_log4php-2.0.0-incubating-pear.tgz', invalid or 
missing package file
Package "Apache_log4php-2.0.0-incubating-pear.tgz" is not valid
install failed

This is due to the following in package-config.php:
   <pearinstaller>
    <min>1.8.0</min>
   </pearinstaller>

Were there any reasons why we could not lower this to 1.7.0?

bye,
