PEAR on Debian

Post by alex.barylski »

I've never used the PEAR installer...I'm running Debian Etch...

I'm interested in getting PHPSpec installed and start tinkering with the framework...

When I run 'pear' on the command line I get an error...

Having read the docs quickly it seems PHP needs to be installed with the ./configure option and pear?

How do I get everythign setup for use?

I am on Debian Etch too. All I needed to install pear was:

Code: Select all

apt-get install php-pear
No problems after that...

Code: Select all

pear list-all
