[root@odin smarty]# pear upgrade MDB
downloading MDB-1.1.1.tgz ...
=2E..done: 151,969 bytes
MDB not installed

Ok i have noticed this in a couple of occations, pear installer seems to
download things first and check after, it would be better if the
dependancy requerements are checked first and then package is
downloaded, this would reduce the load on the client and the
pear.php.net server. I know this might be hard to do in some cases but
(you need the package.xml to check for dependancies), but there has to
be a better way to handle this.
