pear borked

I did "pear upgrade-all" and upgraded a number of modules. I then
immediately tried to use pear to install a new module and got this:

bash: /usr/bin/pear: No such file or directory

WTF! It looks like the upgrade-all caused pear to nuke itself. So how
do I manually install pear? I can't exactly remove PHP and reinstall it
as it's on a live system for ecommerce.

The distro is Red Hat Enterprise 3

I've had problems in the past with PEAR, I like it's functionality but
boy does it cause me some headaches. Here's one way to go about it:

http://www.sitepoint.com/article/get...ed-with-pear/2

You can also go from here:

http://pear.php.net/manual/en/installation.manually.php

And this article talks about what to do if you're installing on a
shared hosting service:

http://www.phphub.com/pear_manual/in...on.shared.html

Hope that helps.
