Pear problems when upgrading from php4 to php5

[Edwin Culp]

I did a pkg_delete of all php4 and php4-pear packages and first 
installed php5 then installed php5-pear, all went normal to this point.  
Now that I need to install other pear libraries I get the following error :

*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/sysutils/pear-Log.

I am running current with everything updated, mergemaster, etc.

Un fortunately, pear has always worked out of the box for me.  It would 
appear that I have missed a step or done something else stupid, the most 
probable.

Any suggestions appreciated,
