No no. There is no need to rewrite anything.
The configure.php changes in phpdoc/ are completely separate from PhD.
All PhD needs is a file containing the XML (i.e. .manual.xml) which
can be created with PHP:
<?php
$dom = new DOMDocument();
$dom->load("manual.xml", LIBXML_NOENT | LIBXML_NSCLEAN);
$dom->xinclude();
if ($dom->validate()) {
$dom->save(".manual.xml");
}
?>
The .manual.xml isn't technically even required for PhD, it is just faster :)
Since pear-doc is using Docbook-DSSSSL you will not be able to build
the manual after upgrading to DB5 since the DSSSL stylesheets simply
don't support it, so before you upgrade the PhD theme/stylesheet needs
to be ready.
The last step (optional) is to upgrade to set/book structure like
phpdoc/ did few weeks ago.. I don't exactly recommend you upgrade just
yet though, start small (DB5&PhD) then maybe restructure late on.
Rudy: I guess you should check out that DB5 upgrade script and produce
a .manual.xml file which you can use a test file until you've created
the theme...
