The link was already fixed (PHP Bug #31724) and regarding Yum... yum,
apt-get, feta, fink, etc. are not PECL specific and since a ton of
install wrappers exist out there I don't think listing a few is
necessary, or a good idea. It would also require we keep track of which
PHP extensions are and are not installable via all these methods, and
we'd rather not support them as official means.

For good measure, here's a link to various package managers:

I'm not too sure whether this fits in with a documentation problem or
not. It seems though that there is no such PECL package at all... so
I'll just set this as verified for now :D

Hi Mike,

Please report documentataion problems as documentation bugs in the bug
system.

On this page:
http://ca.php.net/manual/en/ref.domxml.php
In this paragraph:
"This PECL extension is not bundled with PHP. Additional information
such as new releases, downloads, source files, maintainer information,
and a CHANGELOG, can be located here:
http://pecl.php.net/package/domxml. "
The link to:
http://pecl.php.net/package/domxml
is really busted.
Would also be really good to include a simpler way to install this.
Such as:
# yum install php-domxml
Not that everyone can use yum, but sure would be nice to know that
there is a simple way to install this in many Linux distros.

We do have a complete section on installing PECL extensions in the
manual. Possible simpler methods need to be documented there.

Regards,
Gabor Hojtsy
