I'm running SuSE Linux 9.3, fully up to date

running # pear install db responds with ...
downloading DB-1.7.6.tgz ...
Starting to download DB-1.7.6.tgz (124,807 bytes)
.............................done: 124,807 bytes
requires package `PEAR' >= 1.0b1
DB: Dependencies failed

Googling around this ng I found someone with a similar problem who solved it
with ...
# pear install archive_tar
# pear install console_getopt
# pear install xml_rpc
# pear install pear
# pear install db
so I tried that but the # pear install pear responded with ...
downloading PEAR-1.4.4.tgz ...
Starting to download PEAR-1.4.4.tgz (276,978 bytes)
..........................................................done: 276,978 bytes
requires package `PEAR' >= 1.3.3
PEAR: Dependencies failed

I've googled around a fair bit but I can't find a solution.
Can anyone help me please.

Alan
