    <p>So there is the old pear installer and pyrus which is the new package manager for PEAR ... or was it PEAR2 ... at least it's faster and stuff.</p> <p>And there is the old package.xml version &lt;2.0 and the new package.xml >=2.0 ... is that version related to the package manager ... the pear installer or pyrus?</p> <p>And what is PEAR2 actually? Why is there <a href="http://pear2.php.net/" rel="noreferrer">http://pear2.php.net/</a> and there is a version-agnostic 'PEAR' all over the site? Is it actually the same?</p> <p>Could someone please explain to me how PEAR / PEAR2 / package.xml &lt; and >= 2.0 / pear installer / Pyrus(.phar) are interrelated?</p> <p><strong>EDIT 1</strong>:</p> <p><a href="http://pear.php.net/manual/en/pyrus.differences.frompear.php" rel="noreferrer">Pyrus: Improvements from the PEAR Installer</a></p> <p>Basically states Pyrus is better than the old pear installer.</p> <blockquote> <p>Pyrus no longer supports package.xml version 1.0</p> </blockquote> <p>So what's going on with anything > 1.0?</p> <blockquote> <p>In addition, Pyrus has introduced support for PEAR2 packages that can be extracted to disk and then later upgraded using Pyrus.</p> </blockquote> <p>I'm sorry ... but is that propper English or is it just phrased confusingly? It seems to say that Pyrus also still supports PEAR ... and of course PEAR2. Still leaving the main question to be answered - what is PEAR2?</p> <p><strong>EDIT 2</strong>:</p> <p><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/helgith/pear2-pyrus-the-look-ahead" rel="noreferrer">PEAR2 &amp; Pyrus - The look ahead</a></p> <p>It's a 2 years old outlook and slides for a presentation ... so mostly just keywords and -phrases.</p> <p>So PEAR2 is a concept overhaul ... in which way?</p> <p>Has a new installer ... Pyrus? ... but didn't the other source state that Pyrus has <em>introduced</em> support for PEAR2?</p> <p>The constraints for package distribution seem to have changed ... only stable and PHPUnit coverage of at least 50% ...</p> <p>The rest doesn't convey a clear meaning to me.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
