Description
Validate a package-style dependency. Validation is performed in this sequence:
-
If the dependency package provides an extension through the <providesextension> tag, then see if it passes the extension validation test first and return if so.
-
If the list of packages to be installed contains a match for the dependency, use that to validate the dependency and return.
-
If the dependency package is already installed, make sure the installed version passes the conditions.
-
At this point, the dependency has failed. If the dependency is required, return a PEAR_Error containing the failure error message, otherwise return an array containing the error message.
