What is the recommended way to install PHP pear packages?

I need Crypt/Blowfish.php

The copy I see from another install (not pkgsrc) has

http://pear.php.net/package/Crypt_Blowfish

So what is the pkgsrc way to install this?

Do I use some pear tool to install it? If so will it clutter my LOCALBASE?Or will it be registered as a pkgsrc package?


(I have not installed lang/pear yet.)

Do I package it for pkgsrc? If so, what is an example template to look at?

Thanks

There are a few PEAR packages in pkgsrc already. You'll need to installPEAR (lang/pear) as a base requirement. Then have a look at any ofthe pear-* packages as examples of how to package it:


http://pkgsrc.se/search.php?so=pear-

If it all works correctly pkgsrc should properly register the packagewith PEAR when the install is complete. i.e. 'pear list' will showCrypt_Blowfish.


HTH,
