The analogon would be "pear install <packagename>"; see
http://pear.php.net/manual/de/faq.users.php
But it is discouraged to do so and for the Perl CPAN install way
documented and explained why not to run through this.
If you really can't get the Pear package you need from CentOS or any 3rd
party repository, use your testing and development system to create an RPM
your own, using the .spec from a different Pear RPM. You will certainly
benefit from this approach in the long run to administrate your systems in
the light of security and maintainability.
