Installing php5 no pear.conf.sample

[danocd@…]

I found the same problem installing just now the newest port php5 5.2.6_1+apache2+macosx+mysql5 as Ticket #6660:
/opt/local/etc/pear.conf.sample does not exist

I'd guess you probably probably want to use +pear? BTW, olegb is retired.

Daniele sent an email reply saying:

I was simply following the instructions here ​http://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/MAMP, where is written:

Set up your PHP configuration files

    cd /opt/local/etc
    sudo cp php.ini-dist php.ini
    sudo cp pear.conf.sample pear.conf

I really do not know what the +pear is.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

I fixed the wiki page to show that pear.conf only exists when you use the +pear variant.
