Hello,

See my tentative fix at https://github.com/pear/PHP_Archive/pull/4.
Not sure if this is the only issue affecting PHP 8.0.0 compatibility or not.

I just hope the package's maintainers can release a fixed PHAR archive soon because I also would like to use PHP 8 and pear together.

Regards,
François

Trying to install install PHP 8, then subsequently pear (for linux) via

https://pear.php.net/manual/en/installation.getting.php

Results in: 

php go-pear.phar

This Unsupported operand types: array & int problem is preventing our upgrade to PHP 8.

And it has been in existence at least 17th July 2020.

I simply cannot believe it has existed for so long without being sorted out.

This has apparently been fixed a while ago.

This problem still exists in PHP 8.0.8:

Installing man pages:             /opt/php8/share/man/man1/
  page: phpize.1
  page: php-config.1

According to <https://github.com/pear/PHP_Archive/pull/4>, this
issue has been fixed, but maybe there are more such cases.

Anyhow, there appears to be an issue with PEAR.
<https://pear.php.net/install-pear-nozlib.phar> still has
Archive_Tar 1.4.9, although 1.4.13 is latest, so php-src
distributes the old version.

Maybe Christian can help?

I have the pearweb_phars updated on the PEAR website... v1.10.20 now contains the updated Archive_Tar v1.4.14.

See if this solves your issue.

In case it's appropriate to tack on this bug report, I encountered these two warnings but was able to proceed with installation when using PHP 8.0.10 to install pear (using go-pear.phar taken from pearweb_phars-1.10.21).
