Description: ------------ pear install -a produces funny error messages Reproduce code: --------------- pear install -a mail_mime date auth_sasl net_url http_request file services_weather while preferred_state being set to stable Actual result: -------------- *After* downloading all packages: Release for Release for 'services_weather' dependency 'services_weather' 'XML_Serializer' has state 'beta', requires dependency 'SOAP' has 'stable' state 'beta', requires 'stable' install failed

This is related (partly) to #534, same remark. Delayed for the stable 1.3 release or 1.4. pierre

Does this still occur with 1.3? I suspect the long term best way to fix this one is to implement all of the downloader code inside pearweb, and call something like package.getReleaseWithAllDeps($state = stable) package.getReleaseWithReqDeps($state = stable) These would do all the snaking through the dependency tree to determine the packages and versions needed, and simply return them in an array, or an error message.
