All, I'd suggest keeping PEAR libraries as an included download. I've actually run across web hosts that don't allow their users to touch the PEAR libraries installed with PHP for "security reasons". For these folks having a default PEAR library already with Fallout will simplify installation and reduce support questions. However, an option to point Fallout to the system PEAR library would be nice. Lastly, there might be three Fallout downloads, one with PEAR libraries, one without, and a file that tests for PEAR libraries. Slightly more work you folks, but does give us users and developers an opportunity to pick what would work best for us. Michael |

In rc1 our goal was just that, there were just a couple of quirks in the install (hence the release candidate :) ). The PEAR libs were included in rc1 and the setup actually checks to see if your local PEAR libs are installed correctly. If they are not, it notifies you and automagically uses the PEAR libs we provided. We will be sure to test this more strictly before another rc.

If you create a file /conf/pear_path.php and put this in it <?php ini_set("include_path",ini_get("include_path").":/mypath/phpws_core/pear/") ?> This is read by index and the local pear stuff is included with the system default path. This file is also created automatically by set_config if needed. > > Lastly, there might be three Fallout downloads, one with PEAR libraries, > one without, and a file that tests for PEAR libraries.

+1 to this. I just installed RC1 and the note that my system's PEAR libs were out of date served as a reminder that I should update them and so I did that. An added bonus if you have root access on the system. Don. On Mon, 28 Oct 2002, Jeremy Agee wrote: > > All, > > > > I'd suggest keeping PEAR libraries as an included download.
