Very long story behind it. |
| 9 |
The short of it is that the PEAR tool (needed to install properly using |
| 10 |
the php-pear eclass), is only with the main dev-php/php ebuild |
| 11 |
(abstracted to virtual/php historically). |

Ultimately the virtual/php depend will continue to exist as some users |
| 14 |
want to indicate that a package works with any PHP distribution. |
| 15 |
There is one other PHP virtual: virtual/httpd-php that is meant to be |
| 16 |
used to indicate any supported combination of a webserver with PHP. |

For your submission, ensure you use the php-pear eclass, it will make |
| 19 |
your life much easier. |
