Actually, "pear install" is very useful for non-root users to deploy localised
PEAR installs or installs or applications which use the PEAR installer, in
combination with options specifying e.g. php_dir etc. That said, in that case
they will probably have a customised pearrc which can/could/would override
cache_dir and download_dir.

I suppose what would be coolest is some run-time substitution of a "current
user" part in download_dir and cache_dir, but that's almost certainly
overcomplicated.

I don't think it's harmful having cache_dir = download_dir.

**Highly** recommended reading for all those interested in this bug is ISBN

Development and Deployment" by the upstream lead Greg Beaver)
