| Hello,
I seem to have broken my PEAR installation somehow. I'm getting:
Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class:
pear_command_auth-init in /usr/lib/php/PEAR/Command.php on line 271
I think the last thing I did was upgrade the pear package to the latest
release. I didn't discover the problem until a few w s later, so i'm
not entirely sure what I did. Any advise on repairing my PEAR
installation would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff Moore

Let me guess: you upgraded via a method other than "pear upgrade PEAR",
i.e. a debian package/gentoo ebuild/Grunklix Nuggetdistro :)
Regardless of the cause, you are suffering from 2 issues:
1) your PEAR/Command.php is actually from PEAR 1.3.6 or earlier (check
the $Id$ tag, it should be
$Id: Command.php,v 1.35 2005/11/01 05:39:23 cellog Exp $
2) to fix this, run
sudo rm /usr/lib/php/PEAR/Command/*-init.php
sudo pear upgrade --force PEAR
or as root s/sudo//
or, if you're using PHP 5.1.0 or newer, simply:
sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/php/.registry
sudo make install-pear
The best advice is to report a bug to the maintainer of the port, this
is a problem that has crept up repeatedly and is out of our hands
because I have no comprehension of why someone would try to mix up two
completely incompatible versions of PEAR and then call it a good thing...

I did install a security update just before it stopped working. I
didn't realize it would downgrade PEAR, tho.

Worked great. Thanks.
