pear upgrade pear issues

Have an old version of pear that just keeps tellin you that you need a more recent version of pear to upgrade pear (pear install PEAR)?

Try this:

1. Run the below command and save the output as "go-pear.php". By default it saves as "index.html" I think. You can rename it to "go-pear.php" after it gets downloaded.

$wget http://go-pear.php

2. Run this to upgrade to the latest version of pear

$php go-pear.php

3. Done.
