When running emerge -uD it want to upgrade the current PEAR-PEAR package to the new PEAR-PEAR-1.8.1 as well as several other PEAR packages due to it been split up. But the -D (deep) switch causes these packages to be pulled in before PEAR-PEAR-1.8.1 in the list, causing a file collision error as at least parts of them already is own by PEAR-PEAR-1.7.1 (or something similar). I am not an expert on this so not sure but I think the PEAR-PEAR-1.8.1 package needs a BLOCK flag (or how it's done) so older version get uninstalled BEFORE the other coliding sub packages gets pulled in.

Steve, can you handle that, please, as you added -1.8*, iirc? And would it be ok for you to become primary maintainer for PEAR? If so, please add yourself to metadata.xml.

Agreed, sorry I missed that, fixed in CVS.
