If you run commands that use PEAR (like pear upgrade or symfony plugin-install), you might get the following error:
Discovery of channel "pear.symfony-project.com" failed.
This is due to a bug in the version 1.4.7 of PEAR. This version doesn't recognize channel names containing dashes, and - damn - our channel is called "pear.symfony-project.com".
There are two possible workarounds, until the bug is fixed by the PEAR team:
- downgrade PEAR to 1.4.6 by typing
pear upgrade -f PEAR-1.4.6- apply the patch to the PEAR bug #6960 manually
Sorry for that, it should soon be fixed with a new PEAR release.
