Bug 107078 – dev-php/PEAR-XML_RPC-1.4.2 file collisions

• Status: RESOLVED LATER
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Julien Allanos (RETIRED) 2005-09-24 04:40:01 UTC]

existing file /usr/share/php/XML/RPC.php is not owned by this package
existing file /usr/share/php/XML/RPC/Server.php is not owned by this package

both files are owned by PEAR-PEAR-1.3.6.

There is nothing we can do about file collisions between PEAR and its
dependencies (Archive_Tar, Console_Getopt, and XML_RPC).

Sebastian: I don't know anything about this php stuff, but there should be no
file collisions. Imho a way to fix this needs to be found sooner or later.

In order to install PEAR (dev-php/PEAR-PEAR), we need to bootstrap it. This
bootstrapping requires the files from dev-php/PEAR-Archive_Tar,
dev-php/PEAR-Console_Getopt, and dev-php/PEAR-XML_RPC to be present *before*
they can be installed using the ebuilds.

I see no resolution for this. *Maybe* we could change dev-php/PEAR-PEAR,
dev-php/PEAR-Archive_Tar, dev-php/PEAR-Console_Getopt, and dev-php/PEAR-XML_RPC
to not use the PEAR Installer (ie. not use the php-pear eclass). But this would,
if it worked at all, be a very messy solution.
