Description: ------------ I try to upgrade phpunit from 3.3.12 to 3.4.0beta1, which fails when using "pear upgrade phpunit/phpunit-beta". It fails when I use the version without "-f": "pear upgrade phpunit/phpunit-3.4.0beta1" - but it works with -f " pear upgrade -f phpunit/phpunit-3.4.0beta1".

Works just fine for me - see the output below, note the lack of -f in the beta1 part. I'm closing it down - please confirm and reopen if this still happens to you on the latest CVS [helgi@Stewie tests]# pear clear-cache reading directory /tmp/pear/cache 40 cache entries cleared [root@Stewie tests]# pear upgrade -f phpunit/phpunit-3.3.12 Did not download optional dependencies: pear/Image_GraphViz, pear/Log, use --alldeps to download automatically phpunit/PHPUnit can optionally use package "pear/Image_GraphViz" (version >= 1.2.1) phpunit/PHPUnit can optionally use PHP extension "pdo_mysql" downloading PHPUnit-3.3.12.tgz ...

Thank you for taking the time to report a problem with the package. This problem may have been already fixed by a previous change that is in the CVS of the package. Please log into CVS with: cvs -d :pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net:/repository login and check out the CVS repository of this package and upgrade cvs -d :pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net:/repository co pear-core pear upgrade pear-core/package2.xml or pear upgrade pear-core/package.xml If you are able to reproduce the bug with the latest CVS, please change the status back to "Open". Again, thank you for your continued support of PEAR.

Brett also confirmed that this doesn't happen anymore - You probably just had a bad checkout or not using 1.8.0 :-)

Works for me with pear-1.8.0rc1
