<h1>Innovating the future: Package.xml 1.0, and PEAR 1.3.6 are officially deprecated</h1>
<div style="margin-left:2em;margin-right:2em">
If you are using PEAR 1.3.6 or older, you will no longer be able to install or upgrade
packages as of January 1, 2008. On this day, the XML-RPC server at pear.php.net will be
shut down, to be permanently replaced by the newer, more scalable REST interface that was
introduced with PEAR version 1.4.0. Users who upgrade to PEAR 1.5.0 or the latest stable
version of PEAR will be unaffected by this change, and will not notice any difference. For
assistance upgrading <a href="http://pear.php.net/PEAR">PEAR</a> to the latest version, or
for other installation-related questions or concerns, please send an email message to
the pear-general mailing list at
<a href="mailto:pear-general@lists.php.net">pear-general@lists.php.net</a>.
Although most people will not have difficulty, for some systems, upgrading from
ancient versions of PEAR can be tricky. If you are running a version of PEAR older
than 1.4.0, follow these simple steps:
pear upgrade --force PEAR-1.3.6 Archive_Tar-1.3.1 Console_Getopt-1.2
pear upgrade --force PEAR-1.4.11
Those who have PEAR versions 1.4.0 to 1.4.3 should simply skip the first line that
upgrades to PEAR version 1.3.6. Users who are using the web frontend would probably
benefit the most from a clean start - download go-pear from
<a href="http://pear.php.net/go-pear">http://pear.php.net/go-pear</a>,
save as <kbd>go-pear.php</kbd> and re-install PEAR from scratch, overwriting your
existing installation. Instructions are in a comment at the top of the file, or
you can read them directly off of the http://pear.php.net/go-pear website.
Effective February 1, 2007, the release uploader at pear.php.net will no longer
accept packages created using only package.xml 1.0. This affects developers who
are authoring and releasing PEAR packages, not end users who wish to install PEAR
packages. This only affects packages released after February 1, 2007, and will not
be "grandfathered" to existing releases.
To maintain compatibility with PEAR 1.3.6 and earlier, package releases may be created
with both a package.xml (version 1.0) and a package2.xml (version 2.0) using this command:
pear package package.xml package2.xml
To create a package.xml version 2.0 from an existing package.xml version 1.0, simply run
the <code>pear convert</code> command in the same directory as your package.xml. Please
email the <a href="mailto:pear-dev@lists.php.net">pear-dev</a> mailing list for support
