Description: ------------ http://pear.php.net/manual/en/developers.packagedef.php currently documents package.xml packages that are invalid when checked against the package.xml DTD hosted at http://pear.php.net/dtd/package-1.0. Fixes: 1. <release> element must contain an additional element, <license>, between the <date> and <state> elements. 2. <file> element is only allowed to contain a <replace> element, not CDATA. The name attribute of <file> is used to specify the filename, however, all of the examples show the filename appearing as CDATA within the <file> element. Please replace all examples of <file>filename</file> with <file name="filename" />. Suggested addition: On platforms where libxml2 is installed, developers can check the validity of their package.xml file by running the following command: xmllint --dtdvalid http://pear.php.net/dtd/package-1.0 --noout package.xml

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.
