These last couple of days I have been working on the dev-php/PEAR-PEAR-1.3.5-r1 ebuild. This ebuild will use the PEAR, Archive_Tar, Console_Getopt, and XML_RPC packages to bootstrap a PEAR environment. This makes it possible to use configure --disable-pear in the PHP ebuilds thus making the release cycles of PHP and PEAR independent.
Another change is that the location for the PEAR installation in Gentoo Linux has been changed to /usr/share/php.
