Greg Beaver in a post over his blog informs you about the release of PEAR 1.5.0. He informs you that this release comes with added new features and provides a stabilization of the code base. He says an important change has been made. The PEAR now requires PHP v.4.3.0 and even works with newer function of other versions. In addition forty-six bugs have been fixed since the last stable release of 1.4.11.
Some of the features that have been updated are:
- package.xml 2.1 allows PECL Zend extensions like Xdebug to define themselves as such
- automatic enabling and disabling of PECL extensions in php.ini is now supported
- post-installation scripts are much more advanced in the CLI frontend
- depreciated packages are displayed as such by the installer
- TAP output is possible with the run-tests command
He also informs you that PEAR 1.5.0 maintains full backwards compatibility with PEAR 1.4.11 on every level, and includes new features and stability of existing features, especially installation and uninstall with complex dependency trees.
