[FIXED] How do I update phpunit?

Issue

I have already tried everything, including https://stackoverflow.com/a/8740349/251311 and all possible channel upgrade and clear cache commands. But still:

$ sudo pear install -a -f phpunit/PHPUnit
downloading PHPUnit-3.6.12.tgz ...
Starting to download PHPUnit-3.6.12.tgz (120,240 bytes)
..........................done: 120,240 bytes
install ok: channel://pear.phpunit.de/PHPUnit-3.6.12

while:

$ pear list-upgrades
Channel pear.php.net: No upgrades available
pear.phpunit.de Available Upgrades (stable):

Award

There will be 100 points bounty for a person who will hint what can cause PEAR not be able to upgrade phpunit to the latest possible (using PEAR).

Solution

Well, I use ubuntu lts 10.04, and it has php 5.3.2 version.

While phpunit 3.7 depends on php >= 5.3.3 (though it's not shown explicitly anywhere)
