Description: ------------ I have both PHP4 and PHP5 on my system. PHP4 php binary is the first in my PATH. If I run (pear5 is the pear from PHP5) pear5 install any-pecl-extension.tgz then pear would run phpize from the PHP4, which is wrong. Further ./configure looks for php-config in PATH - the same problem, it is using php-config from PHP4. There are two ways to fix this: 1. pear would run phpize from the PHP5 binary path, and would add --with-php-config=/path/to/php-config every time for each PECL extension. 2. pear would change PATH before running phpize. The second approach is "more BC" (see attached one-line patch.

This bug has been fixed in CVS. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the end of next Sunday (CET) on pear.php.net. In case this was a pear.php.net website problem, the change will show up on the website in short time. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PEAR better.
