PEAR seems determined to install into my home directory instead of wherever it usually goes: cmayo@ElementaryXPS:/usr/share/lib$ pear config-get php_dir /home/cmayo/pear/share/pear I've installed PEAR a few times in the past but have never seen it do this. I installed with the go-pear.phar PHP script (https://pear.php.net/manual/en/installation.getting.php) and apt-get doesn't see the package to remove it so I can start over. Any ideas on how to remove it and get it installed to the right place (wherever that is)?
