Description:
------------
the memory limit of 8M in the cgi php.ini produce a fatal error in the instalation script.
changing to 16M for example solve the problem.
i could be a good idea put a ini_alter("memory_limit", "**M");
in the installation script.

Reproduce code:
---------------
# pear install phpdocumentor

Expected result:
----------------
downloading PhpDocumentor-1.2.3.tgz ...
Starting to download PhpDocumentor-1.2.3.tgz (2,656,621 bytes)
.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................done: 2,656,621 bytes
install ok: PhpDocumentor 1.2.3

Actual result:
--------------

I'm not sure it's up to PEAR to set the memory limit.
Tomas, Greg, opinions?

Installation of phpdocumentor is okay.
[]#pear install phpdocumentor
[]#cd /usr/bin
[]#phpdoc
PHP Fatal error: Cannot re-assign $this in /usr/share/pear/PhpDocumentor/phpDocumentor/ParserElements.inc on line 238
i.e phpdocumentor is not running properly .!!

Have a nice time.

Has this issue been addressed?

Or is this a pear installer problem?

According to http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg205637.html

the solution is to increase the allowed memory size for PEAR. I did this by altering the following line in /usr/bin/pear :

exec $PHP -C -q $INCARG -d output_buffering=1 $INCDIR/pearcmd.php "$@"

to

exec $PHP -C -q $INCARG -d output_buffering=1 -d memory_limit=36M $INCDIR/pearcmd.php "$@"

cheers,
gustavo
