Description:
------------
Manual installation allows PEAR to be installed on separate directories, for the case one has no access to the normal PEAR directory. To use it this php statement is to be coded:
ini_set('include_path', $ActivePath . "pear/PEAR/" . PATH_SEPARATOR . ini_get('include_path'));

As the PEAR_Info package only lists those packages in its normal directory, could this be changed, so that also the packages within the other installation directories are shown. Obviously, an additional info line, showing the directory where the package is installed, is needed also.

Thanks a lot.
