The question form my POV and maybe our users remain:
Installed with php-release:
pecl-command is available as of PHP x.x.x?
"in all recent (and supported) PHP releases" is a vague term.
There must be a PHP Version we can name, where pecl-command is installed
first time, no?
We should offer this piece of info to our readers :-)
No idea, 5.1.0?
Anyone?
However, it is more important to introduce the notion of *installer*
and package versions and not only php versions.
I agree completly, that it is important to introduce the notion of
*installer* version.
But I didn't get the part about "more important". More important than what?
Don't get me wrong:
but imagine someone is reading the docs, how to install a pecl-extension
as outlined, fires up her terminal, types "pecl install
<pecl-extension>" and pecl-command is not available? No hint in the
docs, thats bad, whats going on ;-)
Wchich steps should she take to get the required pecl-command or maybe
she can still use pear install... ?
