I recently installed PHPUnit using the pear package installer as directed in the documentation. Pear is currently installed in /usr/local/lib/php/pear. However, PHPUnit seems to be installing itself into /usr/share/pear and therefore I get include errors when I try to run phpunit --version or phpunit --help.
I see three possible solutions, but I am afraid of running into problems later on if I choose the wrong one. Here are the possible solutions: (A) move the PHPUnit directory from /usr/share/pear/PHPUnit to /usr/local/lib/php/pear/PHPUnit, (B) move the PHPUnit directory to /usr/local/lib/php/pear/share/pear/PHPUnit, or (C) reinstall phpunit using some extra command or switch, to get it to install to the proper location?
Thanks in advance for your help.
UPDATE: Here is the output of pear config-show when run under my username:

All right, seems we have found the issue (see the comments).
I would assume PHPUnit was installed as root or pear is for some reason picking up the "roots" config dir.
The path where the code is put is defined in:
PEAR directory php_dir /usr/share/pear
So something in the pear config seems to be the issue.
If possible I'd pear config-set php_dir $yourLocation and see if it works out then.
It is possible to install multiple versions of PHPUnit using pear install --installroot /some/path/ like described in the post. So that should work out no matter what.
