I'm in the process of packaging PostgreSQL 7.1beta3. It's not yet completing the build successfully, but it's now a question of changing debian/rules and the various files and dirs files. There may still remain some problems with perl-dependent stuff; perl is HELL! (metaphorically :-))
I'm also making some changes to the installation scripts to take account of upstream changes. This will involve moving user options from pg_options and postmaster.init into the new postgresql.conf. There will probably be other changes too. This is the opportunity to suggest any major changes to the packaging. I'll be going back over my emails to see what people may have suggested, but they're probably not complete, so don't assume that I will automatically remember anything you've mailed me in the past. I won't commit the new package to unstable until 7.1 is made final. When the first package of a beta release is available I will post an address where it may be obtained. PostgreSQL team: I shall upload this to cvs when I have got an installable package. -- Oliver Elphick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Isle of Wight http://www.lfix.co.uk/oliver PGP: 1024R/32B8FAA1: 97 EA 1D 47 72 3F 28 47 6B 7E 39 CC 56 E4 C1 47 GPG: 1024D/3E1D0C1C: CA12 09E0 E8D5 8870 5839 932A 614D 4C34 3E1D 0C1C ======================================== "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
