You should probably try and determine 
if the registry is good or not.

I would look for a file called pear.ini.
If you find it change to that directory and 
see if you can run the pear script: 'pear help' 
and then pear 'package-dependencies Pear'.
(you could try some more commands -- 
list-upgrades might be a good one to try) 

If things look good, you could just add on 
the directory to your include description.
