Sunsetting PEAR Channel for Zend Framework 1

Sunsetting PEAR Channel for Zend Framework 1

The unofficial PEAR channel for Zend Framework 1 was created in 2016 , at the time when PEAR was still used a lot.

Due to the fact that is a pain to upgrade PEAR to work with PHP 8 , we must sunset the channel .

Another reason for sunsetting is that currently is running on an LXC container with Centos 7 , which does not work on latest Proxmox version, and the upgrade to Amlaminux is too much of a pain.

Thank you PEAR for your contribution to PHP ecosystem, it was a major part of PHP infrastructure .
