Answer 1

It might be that you are behind a proxy and need to configure it -> http://blog.ekini.net/2008/03/06/using-pear-behind-a-proxy-server-that-requires-authentication/.

Another issue is that your package list is outdated -> run pear clear-cache

If that does not help, install the version directly:

$ pear install pear/mime_type-1.3.1

If that does not help, post the error message.

Then download the tgz yourself from the pear.php.net package and do:

$ pear install MIME_Type-1.3.1.tgz
