Hi both,
I totally agree, most hosts just install what comes as default with a
distribution, they don't care or even bother with PECL in 99% of cases in
my
experience.
Well - that can't be entirely true or there'd be next to no MySQL support
out there!
I just think we make it needlessly difficult for people
(including/especially hosts) to find their way around PECL at present. Maybe
a better way to go would be to start distributing an 'A1 pack' (there has to
be a better name) _before_ moving anything more out to it from the core
distribution. At least that way there'd be the possibility of moving things
out of core - at present if you do that you're just consigning extensions to
oblivion.
