Thanks, this was just what I needed!

I was able to upgrade without manually downloading anything, with just this:

pear upgrade pear-1.3.3
pear upgrade pear-1.4.11
pear upgrade

(It’d be nice if PEAR were able to detect the problem and do the multistage upgrade itself, instead of just giving up and making the user find out what to do.)

Yes, thanks. Was getting annoyed. Asked bigG and found this. Had a bit of trouble but was able to get it ok.

I used the method as well,
cause I had trouble using chanell feature, and I was using pear 1.3.6!

not really nice that I could not upgrade pear using pear 1.3.6 but I could using 1.3.3!

Anyway thanks,
now I did it, upgrading to 1.5.4!

Ah, good to know. When I wrote this 1.4.11 was the latest release.

Note that you can’t upgrade to 1.5.0 directly. I had to upgrade to 1.4.11.
