Hi!
Currently it is not possible to upgrade from rt 3.6 (Lenny) to rt 3.8
(Squeeze) when using PostgreSQL 8.3 as a backend.
Reason:
rt3.8-db-postgresql depends on meta-package postgresql-client, which
depends on postgresql-client-8.4. Currently the upgrade path from
PostgreSQL 8.3 to 8.4 is broken, see
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=596678
So, to being able to upgrade I needed to edit debian/control. Instead of
Depends: ${misc:Depends}, libdbd-pg-perl (>= 1.41),
postgresql-client (>= 7.4)
Suggests: postgresql | postgresql (>= 7.4)
I changed the lines to this:
Depends: ${misc:Depends}, libdbd-pg-perl (>= 1.41),
postgresql-client-8.3 (>= 7.4)
Suggests: postgresql-8.3 | postgresql (>= 7.4)
Maybe the lines should include both postgresql-client and
postgresql-client-8.3 to ensure an upgrade path to rt 3.8 without
needing to upgrade from PostgreSQL 8.3 to 8.4 either?
Regards,
Ingo
