Install Pear Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer package on Red Hat ES5
February 18th, 2009
As of this posting, the Pear Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer package is available only in a beta release. Running the following command gives errors:
pear install http://download.pear.php.net/package/Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer-0.9.1.tgz
Since this package is in a beta release. Try running this command instead:
pear install -f ––alldeps http://download.pear.php.net/package/Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer-0.9.1.tgz
The “-f” forces the install. The “––alldeps” flag is included to that package dependencies are also downloaded and installed.
