Question

I’m trying to compile php with some specific extensions, and I’ve come across the pecl project which is supposed to list all the extensions used with php. But the project’s website seems to be dead.

• the links I found in another tutorial to download the packages isn’t working
• the search feature isn’t working
• the ability to add extensions isn’t working

So for those who know more about pecl, is it still alive? Did a better replacement come out that I should use instead?

Edit:
Also, if I go the cumbersome route of browsing the package categories one by one to find the package I’m looking for, some categories give me database errors like this. Is the project still being maintained at all? Is there a better replacement?

ERROR:
DB Error: syntax error… SELECT p.id, p.name, p.summary, p.license, p.unmaintained, p.newpk_id, (SELECT COUNT(package) FROM
releases WHERE package = p.id) AS numreleases, (SELECT state FROM
releases WHERE package = p.id ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1) AS status,
(SELECT version FROM releases WHERE package = p.id ORDER BY id DESC
LIMIT 1) AS version, (SELECT releasedate FROM releases WHERE package =
p.id ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1) AS releasedate FROM packages p WHERE
