Yes but you need the original pear to do that. If somebody installed the pear, made modifications and then just zipped it up, it wouldn't work. On the other hand, a pear that was just unzipped, not installed, will not run. It was my understanding that the original poster did not in fact have the original pear file. So what you do, and I suspect that is what Jens also does, is install the pear, run it, make modifications, and then migrate your changes from the installed pear into the zip file. That works, but it's not exactly a smooth process. --Thilo
