[2006-03-13 01:03 UTC] b dot g dot l dot nelissen at gmail dot com

Description:
------------
choosing a custom "Installation prefix" will cause the
instalation script to add an .: to the preferred prefix.

Test script:
---------------
(operating system is OSX)
# curl http://go-pear.org | php
choose option 1
type: "/usr/local"
press enter

test it with:
<?php
require "XML/RSS.php";
$feed = '';
$rss =& new XML_RSS($feed);
$rss->parse();
print "<ul>/n";
foreach ($rss->getItems() as $item) {
print '<li><a href="' .$item['link'] . '">' . $item['title'] . "</a></li>\n";
}
print "</ul>\n";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
a rss view of the site given in $feed = '';

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'XML/
RSS.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php') in /Library/PRIVATE/
index.php on line 43

WATCH THE "include_path" IT CONTAINS AN ".:" WITCH DOES NOT
BELONG THERE.

(sorry aint got the installation at hand, ill try to memorize it)

After choosing the install options the installer will install.
After the installation a summary will show up inwhich:

include_path='.:/usr/lib/php'

(the wrong path...)

this path commes back if you try to run a php script as written before.
