pear downloading never works

The pear package management is a piece of crap that has never ever worked for me. All the same, I thought I would try it again today:

# pear install Cache_Lite
downloading Cache_Lite-1.4.1.tgz ...
Starting to download Cache_Lite-1.4.1.tgz (20,618 bytes)
........done: 20,618 bytes
Could not get contents of package "/tmp/tmpgUMmTk/Cache_Lite-1.4.1.tgz". Invalid tgz file.

Fatal error: Nesting level too deep - recursive dependency? in Unknown on line 0
