I have had to de- and reinstall a newer version of PHPUnit following these directions. Now when I'm launching this line

sudo pear install --alldeps phpunit/PHPUnit

I see an error message, that looks like this.

Unknown remote channel: pear.symfony.com
phpunit/PHPUnit requires package "channel://pear.symfony.com/Yaml" (version >= 2.1.0)
No valid packages found

If I install just Yaml by launching

sudo pear install symfony/YAML

an older version (1.0.6) will be installed that doesn't meet the dependency of PHPUnit. How can I possibly solve this?

I had the same problem while upgrading my phpunit.

This solved the problem:

pear channel-discover pear.symfony.com
pear install pear.symfony.com/Yaml

Then run:

pear install --alldeps pear.phpunit.de/PHPUnit

OBS: I think the pear install pear.symfony.com/Yaml is not necessary. I'm just posting it because it is exactly the way I solved my problem.
