The change was little but it was a major issue for me ( the sync simply
doesn t work) and it seems that peoples who don t use openpkg use the
PEAR for horde and naturaly for Kolab_Format.
I changed the wiki to do not use PEAR anymore.

Perhaps good to change this Wiki page because this page refer to PEAR
and confuse peoples (me first, that is why i believed in PEAR) :
http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Horde_Kolab_Format
