Hi,

not even outdated packages?

C:\Documents and Settings\Greg Beaver>pear help clear-cache
pear clear-cache
Clear the XML-RPC/REST cache. See also the cache_ttl configuration
parameter.

Note that there is no mention of downloaded packages because these are
not stored in any kind of cache.

yes i know, i did not say that anythings claims to delete these downloaded
files, i just wrote that it doesn't happen

don't you think that any part of PEAR should take of this downloaded files?

at least for me whether on windows nor on linux my /var/tmp/pear/* does not
got deleted automatically ... so it grows and grows and grows ....

pear/cache/

is 'some' kind of cache to me ... ;-)
