13# yum, warning that useradd will query LDAP in a stupid way that makes
14# it hang forever.  As of Fedora 13, this does not seem to be a problem,
15# so it's been removed from the instructions.  If an install is hanging,

204    gem list

206#   Yet again, 'yum search' for RPMs before resorting to 'pear install'.  Note
207#   that for things in the beta repo, you'll need 'pear install package-beta'.
208#   (you might get complaints about the php_scripts module; ignore them)
209    pear list
210# - Look at `pecl list` for PECL things.  'yum search', and if you must,

212#   pecl/foo' or 'pecl install foo-beta' or those two combined.
