We use an external from lib/vendor/symfony => [release tag]. and then just use ./symfony to call tasks from the project directory. As far as keeping a copy on the system we do as John i suggesting. Our PEAR installs are for the current release, and then we have $PEAR/ symfony-1.0.17, $PEAR/symfony-1.2, etc.. with symlinks from $PEAR/ symfony-1.0.17 => /usr/bin/symfony10 and so forth. Although except for generating the initial project, the pear installations rarely see any use.
