"The error is clear."

For those of us without quite so much insight, can you please expand a 
little?  I don't see what's obvious about an error message about 
incorrect permissions when the program is being run as root.

Thanks for your time,

I've had the same problem and was able to figure this one out.

The error message occurs when using anything but the default value
for 'open_basedir =' in /usr/local/etc/php.ini

If you set this to it's default (comment out that line), pear will
install successfully.

Blame PHP for that.
