[Fedora-php-devel-list] Register PECl extensions ?

[Remi Collet]

We are registering the PEAR extensions, so "pear list" give the install
list.

But we do nothing for PECL extensions.

It seems that it is now possible (since pear 1.5.0 ?) using

pecl install --nodeps --soft --force --register-only --nobuild  /path/to/package.xml
pecl uninstall --nodeps --ignore-errors --register-only package_name

An example : 
http://remi.collet.free.fr/rpms/SPEC/php-pecl-apc.spec
(i've don't use >/dev/null to see warning/notice i have to work on, to file an upstream bug)

Please post feedback
- should php-pecl-apc be renamed to php-pecl-APC ?
- about using this feature
- about updating Guidelines
- about using this with pear < 1.5.0 (i don't have it available)

We'll probaly have to think of using the same dir for %{pear_xmldir} and %{pecl_xmldir}

Remi.
