Ah.  Okay.  Sorry, I don't have experience installing the groupware
package, so I missed that.

Yes, indeed.  Highly recommended and well worth it when you get it done.

Perhaps try pear install -a (or --alldeps) horde/webmail

It's clearly installing some of the stuff, so perhaps it's just
dependencies that are lacking.

What is the output of pear list-files horde/horde or pear list-files
horde/webmail?

I had a similar problem when I first installed Horde 4 and eventually,
I was able to fix it by removing pear completely (including some of
the horde directories manually), rebooting and reinstalling PEAR.

However, you can try:

pear uninstall `pear list -c horde | tail -n +4 | awk '{ print "horde/"$1 }'`
pear clear-cache
pear channel-update horde

For the record here is what I did, but since you want the groupware
package it is not much use to you.


✗ pear install Date_Holidays Text_CAPTCHA-alpha Text_Figlet Net_Sieve
Console_Table File_Find SOAP date mdb2#mysql mdb2#mysqli http log
Services_Weather Cache Auth_SASL Net_DNS2 Net_SMTP
✗ pear channel-discover pear.horde.org
✗ pear install horde/horde_role
✗ pear run-scripts horde/horde_role

The last command will ask you for the file system location for your
Horde installation. This should be some path in your web server's
document root, e.g. /usr/share/horde4

To install  Horde, run the following commands:

✗ pear install horde/horde horde/imp horde/ingo horde/kronolith
horde/mnemo horde/nag horde/turba horde/passwd horde/timeobjects
horde/content horde/Horde_ActiveSync

Upgrade Pear and install pecl packages
✗ pear upgrade
✗ pecl install fileinfo xdiff geoip ssh2 sasl idn imagick lzf memcache
✗ vim /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/lzf.ini

; configuration for php LZF module
extension=lzf.so

Then point your browser to the installation location, go to the
Administration/Configuration screen and start configuring.
