Q: Install intl extension on mac osx El Capitan I've scanned the internet for some hours now to find an example how to install the intl extension for my local dev env.
There seems to be an issue to install pear/pecl I read about, is there any workaround to get this extension installed?
Many thanks!

A: I didn't find any trouble installing pear on El Capitan.
Just use Homebrew, e.g.
brew install php56 --with-pear

or extension it-self:
brew tap homebrew/science
brew install php56 pear

And pecl should be in the same folder as php (unless compiled with --without-pear disables). If not, link it manually:
$ ln -vs $(find /usr/local/Cellar/php56 -name pecl -print -quit) /usr/local/bin 
'/usr/local/bin/pecl' -> '/usr/local/Cellar/php56/5.6.0/bin/pecl'
