Description: ------------ pear raises a PHP notice when running the command below but works fine beside that. Test script: --------------- pear uninstall date_holidays#all Actual result: -------------- Notice: Only variables should be assigned by reference in /usr/share/php/PEAR/Command/Install.php on line 903 Call Stack: 0.0033 189824 1. {main}() /usr/share/php/pearcmd.php:0 0.2069 2632952 2. pear_command_install->run() /usr/share/php/pearcmd.php:312 0.2069 2632952 3. pear_command_install->douninstall() /usr/share/php/PEAR/Command/Common.php:285

I can't reproduce this - what kind of weird setup do you have? :)

Heh. :) The backtrace is obviously coming from xdebug. In the reported line, $installed is assigned the result of PEAR_Registry::getInstalledGroup() by reference. But this method might return "false". The fix would be at the end of getInstalledGroup(): if (!count($ret)) { $ret = false; }

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.
