Description:
------------
I tried running the php4-package from Ubuntu Universe and I got fatal memory errors. I have changed memory_limit in php.ini to 64M and I had the same problem.

I then tried to run:

lynx -source http://pear.php.net/go-pear | php

This is the output:

root@forge:/home/jono # lynx -source http://pear.php.net/go-pear | php

it. This command is your tool for PEAR installation and maintenance.

Go-pear also lets you download and install the PEAR packages bundled
with PHP: DB, Net_Socket, Net_SMTP, Mail, XML_Parser, PHPUnit.
