FIX:
Execute the commands:-

[root@server ~]#cd /var/tmp/
[root@server ~]#rm -fr pear pear-build-root
[root@server ~]#ln -s /root/tmp/pear-build-root .
[root@server ~]#mkdir -p /root/tmp/pear/download

Try to install the package now:-

[root@server ~]#pecl install xdebug

It will be installed correctly in the server.
