a hint:

$php_errormsg is a variable containing the text of the last
error 
message generated by PHP. This variable will only be
available within 
the scope in which the error occurred, and only if the
track_errors 
configuration option is turned on (it defaults to off).

maybe you can enable that option and see what the actual
error is...

Cheers,

track_errors is enabled in pearcmd.php using ini_set(), so
it looks like
ini_set('track_errors', 1) is not working on OS X in PHP
5.2.  Let us
know what you figure out.

Thanks,

it does not work anymore if you have a customer error
handler.

Not true. $php_errormsg gets populated if you return false
from your
custom error handler.

error_get_last() is your friend as of PHP5.2.0

My error was related to wrong permissions on the /tmp/pear
directory.
Unfortunately, it seems that track_errors doesn't work
correctly since, even if
it is activated directly in php.ini, php_errormsg is always
empty.

Other OSX users might want to test, just create an empty
directory in /tmp
named pear and give it root write permissions only:

# sudo mkdir /tmp/pear

Then try to install any package you want.
Please report if it does the same for you and the PEAR
installer and PHP
version you use. Thanks.

You're using 1.4.11, right?
