Description: ------------ When using $pear_registry->setConfig() to change the configuration of an registry object, using getPackage() still fails because the registry relies on the install_dir set in the constructor. I expect the registry to use the installation directory of the current config -> patch attached.

Christian, this patch affects a critical portion of the core, and breaks 20 unit tests. I'm postponing until 1.7.1 at the earliest.

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. I took your patch and added cleverness, making the reset of install_dir optional, enabled by default. This way, one can disable this for critical stuff like install_root and company. Voila, all existing tests pass with the change, so I'm happy :)
