Apparently we forgot to update the README file in contrib/. I wonder if it's necessary to explain that within each directory you find one or more ".control" file that determines what can be run ... or maybe just mention the pg_extensions views?
What about this? diff --git a/contrib/README b/contrib/README index a1d42a1..8900693 100644 --- a/contrib/README +++ b/contrib/README @@ -11,11 +11,11 @@ User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML documentation. Most items can be built with `gmake all' and installed with `gmake install' in the usual fashion, after you have run the `configure' script in the top-level directory. Some directories supply new -user-defined functions, operators, or types. In these cases, after you have +user-defined Postgres extensions. In these cases, after you have installed the files you need to register the new entities in the database -system by running the commands in the supplied .sql file. For example, +system by running an appropriate CREATE EXTENSION command. For example, - $ psql -d dbname -f module.sql + $ psql -d dbname -c "CREATE EXTENSION pg_trgm" See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this procedure. -- Álvaro Herrera <alvhe...@alvh.no-ip.org> -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
