Re: [HACKERS] [9.3 doc fix] clarification of Solaris versions
From: Robert Haas robertmh...@gmail.com OK, patch committed and back-patched to 9.3. The patch file turned out to be sorta garbled. I'm not sure if a broken version of diff was used to generate this or whether MauMau hand-edited it after the fact, but the number of lines that were indicated in the control lines didn't match the actual hunks, and patch threw up. So it took me 20 minutes to do what should have taken 5, but now it's done. Thank you, and I'm sorry I caused you much trouble. I edited the patch by hand, being careless about the messy effect. I'll avoid hand-editing. Regards MauMau -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

It is supposed to fix offsets and line counts of hand-edited diffs. -- Álvaro Herrerahttp://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

OK, I've left the reference to OpenSolaris in the attached patch to imply the OpenSolaris derivatives. The patch looks otherwise sensible, but I note that we don't actually have any Buildfarm members running Solaris 10. So do we know for sure that everything works there? Should we try to get one set up before claiming we support the platform? Thanks. I belive PostgreSQL runs successfully on Solaris 10 and later, because the binaries are published on the community site: http://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/binary/v9.3beta2/solaris/ And I could build PostgreSQL 9.2.4 from source code and completed regression test on Solaris 10. In addition, EnterpriseDB supports their product on Solaris, don't they? I appreciate it if you could commit this patch.
