[imp] Updating Pear on a RH7.2 system

[Toomas Vann]

Hi!

Sorry, i have to say that i made a mistake.
In RedHat 7.2 the Pear is located in /usr/share/php
not in /usr/lib/php thta i told earlier.....

Hi!

Maybe this has been already told but
with RedHat 7.2 using CVS verion of Horde/IMP
is easisest installation to it.

PHP comes with MySQL support already, you just have to select
correct packages....
What concerns PEAR, then you just have to download 
from http://horde.org/pear/ package and unpack it to
/usr/lib/php This worked for me few days ago, so i belive
you should not have any trouble with is at all...

As far as I know MySQL-support is not compiled into the PHP that comes with
RH7.2
You will need additional RPM's to get it to work.

A friend of mine, who used RPM's for this said that he might as well could
have
compiled the whole thing from scratch, insted of finding all the needed
RPM's.

This is quite logical if PHP haven't got MySQL support...

U usually get the pear from CVS, and just copy it to the directory under php
containing pear.
Here: http://www.php.net/anoncvs.php you can see how to get the latest CVS
version.

(If you are gonna compile PHP from scratch, then get the lates tarball of
PHP,
compile/install it, and the upgrade paer from CVS. Thats what I would do.)
