More than a little ugly, no thanks, please don't...
It should really be made to be buildable outside of the PostgreSQL
source tree, depending only upon the server API (which is provided in a
seperate Debian package which plphp could build-depend on). This is
exactly how Slony will be packaged too.. From what I've gathered it
sounds like the only issue with this is that it may not get updated when
the server API changes? Are there other issues? Is there something it
needs that isn't or can't be provided by a seperate server API package?
(For those curious- my current plans are that slony will actually
generate a couple differnet binary debs, slon, slonik and
libpostgresql-slon or so. libpostgresql-slon will have the .so which is
installed in the postgresql libdir, slon and slonik have their
associated programs and supporting things (.sql scripts, etc)).
Thanks,
Stephen
