I've installed PEAR in my local area, on my shared host, under htdocs
but I'm anticipating a number of issues.

I'm forcing use of PHP5 with an .htaccess file, but by default the
host runs PHP4
That could mean that pear is installed under the php4/ area, but not
php5 ?

go-pear prompted me to install a number of packages, including DB,
which my webhost already has made available. If I do install DB using
go-pear, which DB will take precedence?


go-pear and pear have worked well on my local machine,
but after using browser to run go-pear on my webhost, and also
WebInstaller.php I got:

Fatal error: Class 'PEAR_Frontend_CLI' not found in
/usr/local/php5/PEAR/Command.php on line 144

I have FTP access, but not shell access.

I've read webpages, from the following links, that seemed helpful:

I also note pear.conf in my htdocs ( where I ran go-pear.php from
)

I also confer with my host, hopefully they don't have any opposition,
to me installing locally PEAR Pkgs that they do not supply.

Searching for solutions, any suggestions maybe helpful. Thanks
