Description:

This package revolutionizes the maintenance of PEAR packages. With a
few parameters, the entire package.xml is automatically updated with a
listing of all files in a package.

Features include:
- reads an existing package.xml file, and only changes the
release/changelog
- a plugin system for retrieving files in a directory. Currently two
plugins exist, one for standard recursive directory content listing,
and one that reads CVS/Entries and generates a file listing based on
the contents of a checked out CVS repository
- incredibly flexible options for assigning install roles to
files/directories
- ability to ignore any file based on a * ? wildcard-enabled string
- ability to manage dependencies
- can output the package.xml in any directory, and read in the
package.xml from any directory
- can specify a different name for the package.xml file

In PEAR status of this package is: stable.
