PEAR Installation problem

When I want to install php after the commands
../configure --with-apxs2=/www/bin/apxs --with-mysql and
make without any error, when i type make install i have the following
error:

Installing PEAR environment: /usr/local/lib/php/
[PEAR] Archive_Tar - already installed: 1.3.1
[PEAR] Console_Getopt - already installed: 1.2

Fatal error: Call to undefined method PEAR_Registry::packageinfo() in
phar://install-pear-nozlib.phar/PEAR/Dependency2.php on line 652
make[1]: *** [install-pear-installer] Hata 255
make: *** [install-pear] Hata 2

I have apache 2.2.0 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant
Update 2),
What can be the problem?

Thanks for your replies!
