  I use PEAR 1.10.1 which I think is the latest version and  
compatible. It is not that PEAR doesn´t work at all after upgrading to  
PHP 7. It just generates weird SNMP errors and looses all installed  
packages. I can reinstall the packages and they will show up in the  
listing of installed packages in PEAR but not in the horde config  
page. The installed pear channels will stay. Somehow I think some  
stuff of the old PEAR config is taken over and leaves PEAR in an  
inconsistant state. But I do not dare to wipe PEAR completely and  
reinstall it from scratch. And I haven´t found a guide yet how to  
smoothly transfer PEAR with a repository for PHP 5 to PHP 7 (even if  
it means reinstalling all packages).
