No, not really.  I just showed that it is possible to have the rpm install 
succesfully although the pear install command fails.  It's a trick, and it 
looks harmless to me, I hope the horde devs agree ;)

The manual command should be:
# rpm -ql --scripts horde-form     
postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
pear install --nodeps --soft --force --register-only \ 
/var/lib/pear/Horde_Form.xml

I can't help you with this, sorry.

I'm sometimes there, mostly only after a request via email.
