I've got PostgreSQL 7.3.1 packages in my experimental tree, but before
I'm willing to release them to unstable I'd like some 3rd-party
confirmation that my upgrade path works OK.  =)

PostgreSQL has some tricky work in upgrading since they don't provide
upgrade tools, and change their on-disk format in every major release. 
If any of you have any of the postgresql 7.2.x packages installed, and
have databases that are backed up and safe from abuse, I would
appreciate some help in trying the new packages out.  Be prepared to
restore your databases from backups...  =)

Anyways, if you're willing to give it a shot, grab my packages from
experimental.  Either the crypto ones, in:

  
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/fink/experimental/crypto/rangerrick/finkinfo/

...or the non-crypto ones, in:

  
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/fink/experimental/rangerrick/finkinfo/database/
  
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/fink/experimental/rangerrick/finkinfo/libs/perlmods/

(perlmods for the perl DBI interface, dbd-pg-pm)

Please let me know if you run into any issues...  Thanks!
