php4-pear broken

[Nagilum]

Hi,

The php4 port has been torn apart for bigger flexibility and 
maintainability, but
now things seem somewhat messed up to me:

root at cakebox /usr/ports/devel/php4-pear > make install
===>  Installing for php4-pear-4.3.8_1
===>   php4-pear-4.3.8_1 depends on executable: pear - not found
===>    Verifying install for pear in /usr/ports/devel/php4-pear
===>  Installing for php4-pear-4.3.8_1
===>   php4-pear-4.3.8_1 depends on executable: pear - not found
...

Now the recursion runs until make has enough,

root at cakebox /usr/ports/devel/php4-pear > make install -DNO_DEPENDS
===>  Installing for php4-pear-4.3.8_1
===>   Generating temporary packing list
Installing PEAR environment:      /usr/local/share/pear/
*********************************************************

To use PEAR you have to add the correct include path into
your /usr/local/etc/php.ini configuration file, like:

include_path = ".:/usr/local/share/pear"

This is not due to a low kern.maxfiles value, I tried that (except if 
installing this port requires >+4000 open files, which I doubt). It's 
probably because of another recursion in this port. However it appears 
to be installed after that.
But this recursion also occurs with other php related ports now!

I'm currently trying to resurrect my imp installation, so I need a lot 
of extensions and therefore see a lot of those error messages above.

I always found the php port exemplary work and understand the 
motivations for the split. I hope this is just a minor glitch that will 
be fixed quickly.

Kind regards,
Alex.
