Description: ------------ The --force command does not work as expected. C:\php>pear install --force LiveUser No release with state equal to: 'stable' found for 'LiveUser' I would expect --force to install LiveUser eventhough my preferred state is "stable"

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.
