This bug is fixed. I tested it.
Test procedure is:
installing the original package you, you get an error of job control
Installing the fixed package, the pear channel will be added and when uninstalling, it will be deleted.
Assigning it to qa
The rpm to be upgraded is:
php-channel-phpdoc-1.3-3.1.mga4.noarch

When installing the update candidate, I get a pear warning, is this to be expected, or does it reveal a new issue?

      1/1: php-channel-phpdoc    #############################################

Warning: date(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected the timezone 'UTC' for now, but please set date.timezone to select your timezone. in PEAR/Registry.php on line 1012

The timezone warnings come from date.timezone not being set in /etc/php.ini

eg. Europe/London, Europe/Paris etc.

Yes, this is normal behavior(In reply to Rémi Verschelde from comment #2)

Update validated.
Thanks.

Advisory:

php-channel-phpdoc requires an inexistent macro (%_pear) and prevents packages depending on this package from building and installing because of the misssing registration of the pear channel phpdoc.org. This new release fixes this misbehavior.

SRPM: php-channel-phpdoc-1.3-3.1.mga4.src.rpm

Could sysadmin please push from core/updates_testing to core/updates.

Thank you!
