Description:

tests/README says

You can install PHPUnit via pear like this:

pear install PHPUnit

Or fetch and install it manually:

http://pear.php.net/package/PHPUnit

In my xampplite PHP 5.2.1 installation,
that pear install line gives

No releases available for package "pear.php.net/PHPUnit"

The PHPUnit installation guide (
http://www.phpunit.de/pocket_guide/3.0/en/installation.html ) says how to get
PEAR to install PHPUnit, the README is no longer correct.

Rather than document external code, I would change the README lines to


Read the documentation at
http://pear.php.net/package/PHPUnit

to learn how to install PHPUnit using PEAR, or to download and install it manually.

http://pear.php.net/package/PHPUnit redirects to http://phpunit.de/ , I'm not
sure which is a better long-term URL.
