** Patches for template.spec, PEAR/Command/Package.phpincluded **

o When trying to build rpms from pear packages(.tgz) by issuing command
'/usr/bin/pear makerpm <package.tgz>',
document files listed in packages.xml was not added to rpm
as expected in some packages.

o Due to other reason, documentations of DB-1.6.1.tgz also not added
to rpm.
From packages.xml of DB-1.6.1:
(...)
<file role="doc" name="doc\IDEAS"/>
<file role="doc" name="doc\MAINTAINERS"/>
<file role="doc" name="doc\STATUS"/>
<file role="doc" name="doc\TESTERS"/>
(...)
'\' used for directory separator, but no translation was done when
generating the spec file so resulting spec file contains '\' as
directory separator. This is not good on unix platform.
I think '\' should be replaced to php constant DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR
in PEAR/Command/Package.php.

o When trying to uninstall rpms, error occurred.

Reproduce code:
---------------
http://news.php.net/article.php?group=php.pear.dev&article=27134

Expected result:
----------------
<package_root>/docs/* should be added to rpm.
<package_root>/examples/* should be added to rpm.

Documentations listed in package.xml as 'doc\foo'
should be treated as 'doc/foo' on *nix platform.
(rpm run on *nix)

rpm -e <package-name> should be exit without errors.

Actual result:

What is happening about this bug ? We are now on 4.3.7 and it still has not been fixed.

What is causing the delay ?

Attempting to run pear makerpm on a package now results in the following output.
