Description:
------------
When pear install is tracing dependencies, it gives the message:

Release for 'db_dataobject' dependency 'Validate' has
state 'alpha', requires 'stable'

which can be confusing to, oh, anyone who didn't write the installer. :-)

Recommend changing this string to:

Package '%s' depends on package '%t', which is in state
'%u' instead of the required '%v'.

And similarly adjusting any other user error messages which are similar to this.
