Description: ------------ This is a PEAR2 thing, probably. It seems rather a shame that although we have an <api> version tag in package.xml, you can't use it as a dependency. In some ways, *IF* this is being used properly, it would make more sense than a package version dependency. Certainly this is true in some circumstances. Therefore, PEAR2 should perhaps support a dep something like this: <required> <package> <name>Foo_Bar</name> <min type="api">1.0.0</min> <max type="api">1.0.2</max> <recommended type="api">1.0.1</recommended> </package> </required> (the implicit default "type" attribute for <min>,<max> etc. would be "packagever" or something)
