I just pushed an initial version of the build system: less than 20 lines
of shell script (translated from pkg-php-tools’ Perl scripts):

http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-php/pear-channels.git;a=commitdiff;h=1c7ccb0eab2708ff1a28750eb5ae709cb9587f55

Since there will be no more need for pkg-php-tools to handle channel
packages, I believe it will save more than 20 lines of code from it. I
don’t believe there is any benefit to push back the relevant code into
pkg-php-tools, tightening the building of those two packages with the
downside of creating a dependency loop (because I believe pkg-php-tools
should simply depend on pear-channels, to make the build-dependency of
other PEAR package more trivial).

I’ll look into providing a pkg-php-tools-overrides file now, and will
then upload this very simple package (I wish I had look seriously into
it sooner actually…)

David
