Description:
------------
pear update-channels
====================
this command gives unexpected result/error msg with the default pear config

Expected result:
----------------
[a list of channels]

Actual result:
--------------
ERROR: existing channel "pear.php.net" is aliased to "pear" already and cannot be re-aliased to "pear.php.net" because a channel with that name or alias already
 exists!  Please re-alias and try again.

Oddly enough, this is a bug in pear-database.php, as the channel.listAll command is returning:

array(
 array('pear')
)

instead of

array(
 array('pear.php.net')
)

I will kill it now

Turns out, this is because the database is storing "pear" as the channel name instead of "pear.php.net" So, I will assign this one to Martin, who can pass it to Pierre, I guess, if too busy

UPDATE channels SET name="pear.php.net" WHERE name="pear";

This will fix it

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the
end of next Sunday (CET) on pear.php.net.

In case this was a pear.php.net website problem, the change will show
up on the website in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PEAR better.

Don't assign any pear bug to me, thank you :)
