you were too quick for mee. one comment though, for /usr/share/php/<app-or-library-name> : it's _quite_ true that you don't need to play with include_path. your library has to know it's installed into /usr/share/php/<app-or-library-name> and either : * use some __FILE__ magic in its requires/includes * already use requires on <app-or-library-name>/*php files And I assume a lots of intern libraries are do not know how to do that. even some that ARE packaged into /usr/share/php/<app-or-library-name> IMHO, the ability to be used with only /usr/share/php in the include_path is sth you MUST have before putting anything in a subdir of /usr/share/php for the rest I do agree 100% with you :) -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O OOO http://www.madism.org
