Description:
------------
Pear Version: 1.4.9

While issuing “pear remote-info [packagename]” command if the package only has one release associated with it (in r/packagename/allreleases.xml), the console returns following error

“Notice: Undefined variable: latest in PEAR\REST\10.php on line 595
PACKAGE DETAILS:
================
Latest “

Fix/Solution
Line #556 of 10.php under PEAR\REST folder (function packageInfo() ) should be modified

Current Code
if (!is_array($allreleases['r'])) {
$allreleases['r'] = array($allreleases['r']);
}

Should be replaced by
if (!is_array($allreleases['r']) || !isset($allreleases['r'][0])) {
$allreleases['r'] = array($allreleases['r']);
}

Test script:
---------------
Create a package with single release

i.e. allreleases.xml should be somewhat like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<a xmlns="http://pear.php.net/dtd/rest.allreleases"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://pear.php.net/dtd/rest.allreleases
http://pear.php.net/dtd/rest.allreleases.xsd">
<p>Package</p>
<c>pear.mydomain.com</c>
<r><v>0.0.1</v><s>alpha</s></r>
</a>

Expected result:
----------------
pear remote-info mydomain\Package will result in error.
