these three php-symfony-* packages i'm working on are dependencies for
Composer, alongside two other PHP libraries which are only distributed
via composer itself (not via any PEAR channels), whereas the Symfony
components are distributed via both methods.

i started packaging these Symfony components with the dh_phpcomposer
helper as suggested previously on the pkg-php-pear list, but i see there
are different opinions.

i can re-package the Symfony components from pear.symfony.com if that is
the preferred method, of course.

can i depend on this even though it's not in sid yet?

pear-symfony-project-channel should be the obsolete one.
