This also causes the pear install fail in HEAD.
And this is because we now use libxml2 instead of expat where former is more strict perhaps?

hi,

there's no more or less strict! ISO-8859-1 is ISO-8859-1 !
is there an active maintener for this extension ?

You have to define the encoding of the XML document in the XML 
header (which is also the XML standard, if you don't do that, 
it defaults to UTF-8). The xml_parser_create() parameter is 
only for the output-encoding (since PHP 5). See the manual for 
details.

Can you please try adding 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
to your XML document and see if it works?

hi,
it's ok with prolog <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

so bug closed and archived!

thanks

As there was no bug here-> bogus.
