OK, I will look for them. Actually slack does not have postgresql at all. You need to build it by hand. What I have built is bare minimum. Libpq+plpgsql and core. That's it. Obviously it won't fly much in real world but that's all I need. So I don't want to show up a package which does not have half the things people frequently use. Will check up on rpms on what components they enable. Bye Shridhar -- You speak of courage. Obviously you do not know the difference betweencourage and foolhardiness.
