It's realy disappointing to see updates for PHP and other software because

PostgreSQL isn't even at the latest 7.4.x-Version. :-(

I think sometimes about asking every portmaintainer "Define me
"importent"" to write down a manpage to explain the meaning of "an
importent update" if it deals with PHP compared e.g. to PostgreSQL or
others.
If data-loss isn't a reason for an update of a database-package....

It's not the first time that I request a PostgreSQL update and it seams
the current maintainer isn't able to change a version-number so that the
update would be avaiable for all users.

No offense intended really, but if that's so important to you, may be you could start here:

http://openbsd.org/porting.html

and specially here:

http://openbsd.org/checklist.html

Then try to make your own and test and if it is good, then send the diff in.

Everyone might appreciate your effort!

Plus you learn a few things along the way too! (:>

That's what I did and hopefully my update to the port will be good.

If not, I am sure I will be hammer down with the answer and then I will have learn something good!

Give it a try, I am sure you will get more help if you get stuck trying then asking.

Just my $0.02 worth.

Best regards,

Daniel
