Hello, I have not seen any PostgreSQL mailing-list for posting results of compilation/testing on different platforms/configurations (something similar to gcc-testresults for gcc).
Are you guys interested in getting results like this ? It could provide developers with lots of interesting information about errors, warnings and regressions (including build & testing times). If you want me to add a little shell script to gather that, I would be glad to do it. It certainly should be on a separate mailing list though (pgsql-testresults ?) Example of a successful build that I did tonight: postgresql-8.0.0beta5 on Fedora Core 3 x86_64 (dual Opteron 2GHz), gcc-3.4.2 :::::::::::::: configure :::::::::::::: CFLAGS="-m64 -g -O2 -march=opteron -fPIC -pipe" CXXFLAGS="-m64 -g -O2 -march=opteron -fPIC -pipe" LDFLAGS="-m64 -fPIC" nohup ./configure --prefix=/opt/pgsql --with-includes=/usr/include/et --with-tcl --with-perl --with-python --with-krb5 --with-pam --with-openssl --enable-nls --enable-thread-safety :::::::::::::: make :::::::::::::: ====================== All of PostgreSQL successfully made.
