Description:
------------
Adding 'installexceptions' generates the same XML output as package.xml, but with package2.xml the baseinstalldir directive appears to be ignored.
<file baseinstalldir="HTML" md5sum="a32ea0d5899960d640815ace42a876b3" name="Tree.php" role="php" />
<file baseinstalldir="Seagull" md5sum="f1d0aecdf57b18ad8b9fb695e9c45a82" name="VERSION.txt" role="data" />
When installing a package described in package.xml format the 'baseinstalldir' directives work as expected, but for package2.xml they are ignored and all files are installed in 'Seagull' and not 'DB' as specified.

can you verify that baseinstalldir="HTML" is in package2.xml?
I created a test case that works as documented, so I wonder if this is indeed a PEAR_PFM bug

verified. This is a serious bug.
When the installer tries to "flatten" the file list, it removes all custom baseinstalldir attributes.
I will be releasing PEAR 1.4.6 with this fix very quickly.

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.
