Description: ------------ My last bug report didn't seem to be posted. Notice: Only variables should be assigned by reference in PEAR/Dependency2.php on line 847 Notice: Only variable references should be returned by reference in PEAR/Downloader.php on line 243 Test script: --------------- root@server [~]# pear install (ANY PACKAGE) Expected result: ---------------- Uhh...no errors? Actual result: -------------- Notice: Only variables should be assigned by reference in PEAR/Dependency2.php on line 847 Notice: Only variable references should be returned by reference in PEAR/Downloader.php on line 243

PEAR Version: 1.4

Although I was unable to reproduce the problem, I'm pretty sure I've fixed this. If you can, would you checkout cvs of pear, pear upgrade package2.xml and try again? Thanks

root@server [~]# pear upgrade package2.xml Notice: Only variable references should be returned by reference in PEAR/Downloader.php on line 243 parsePackageName(): invalid package name "package2.xml" in "package2.xml" invalid package name/package file "package2.xml" Cannot initialize 'package2.xml', invalid or missing package file Package "package2.xml" is not valid upgrade failed

you misunderstand :) $ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.php.net:/repository login Password: phpfi [you will need to double check the password] $ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.php.net:/repository co pear-core $ cd pear-core $ pear up package2.xml $ pear install <any package> The above is what "check out pear-core and run 'pear up package2.xml' and then test again" means.

please try this with PEAR 1.4.1
