And finally, the package I really want. This is a fork of the old PEAR-Mail meant to fix all of the issues with new versions of PHP-5.x, leaving the old PEAR-Mail for 4.x compatibility. I'm running this and its dependencies on one of our web servers right now and it looks like a drop-in replacement for php-5.x. I'm happy to maintain/commit if the php team doesn't want to worry about it.
Created attachment 388442 [details] metadata.xml New metadata.xml making the smtp dependency optional.
Created attachment 388444 [details] PEAR-Mail2-0.1.0.ebuild Maybe I remember the ebuild this time.
Created attachment 388446 [details] PEAR-Mail2-0.1.0.ebuild Not my day.
Created attachment 388448 [details] metadata.xml
This is "in progress" until I can get this bug addressed: http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=20439
These guys never got their act together. Use dev-php/PHPMailer instead.
