Description: ------------ When generating the dependency list on the "download" page, pearweb does not identify optional dependencies, which is confusing. For example: http://pear.php.net/package/PEAR/download/1.5.0 shows: " Dependencies: ... - PEAR Package: PEAR_Frontend_Web - PEAR Package: PEAR_Frontend_Gtk " whereas actually these are not dependencies, they are suggestions (the "optional" attribute is set in the package.xml)

The funny thing here is that some optional deps (e.g. XML_RPC) are shown with the "(optional)" suffix but some aren't.

This bug has been fixed in CVS. If this was a documentation problem, the fix will appear on pear.php.net by the end of next Sunday (CET). If this was a problem with the pear.php.net website, the change should be live shortly. Otherwise, the fix will appear in the package's next release. Thank you for the report and for helping us make PEAR better. the fix is not perfect, but there is no easy quick fix for this one - we would need to redo the database for dependencies.
