Trying to emerge dev-php/PEAR-DB-1.7.6-r1, the following output occurs: >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking DB-1.7.6.tgz to /var/tmp/portage/PEAR-DB-1.7.6-r1/work tar: A lone zero block at 1436 >>> Source unpacked. >>> Test phase [not enabled]: dev-php/PEAR-DB-1.7.6-r1 >>> Install PEAR-DB-1.7.6-r1 into /var/tmp/portage/PEAR-DB-1.7.6-r1/image/ category dev-php WARNING: channel "pear.php.net" has updated its protocols, use "channel-update pear.php.net" to update Cannot install, php_dir for channel "pear.php.net" is not writeable by the current user !!! ERROR: dev-php/PEAR-DB-1.7.6-r1 failed. !!! Function php-pear-r1_src_install, Line 64, Exitcode 1 !!! Unable to install PEAR package !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message. As suggested by '' on the forums, this can be fixed by changing line 61 of php-pear-r1.eclass: if has_version '=dev-php/PEAR-PEAR-1.3*' ; then to if has_version '>=dev-php/PEAR-PEAR-1.3*' ; then Not sure what the implications of this change are.
