Description: ------------ When you pear uninstall --nodeps --ignore-errors --register-only foo The file owned by foo are removed. Documentation say it should not. This is a big problem when packaging RPM: when a package "obsolotes" a old one, "pear uninstall" (in %postun) delete newly installed files. Test script: --------------- # pear install File # ls /usr/share/pear/File.php /usr/share/pear/File.php # pear uninstall --nodeps --ignore-errors --register-only File # ls /usr/share/pear/File.php ls: /usr/share/pear/File.php: No such file or directory

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.
