There will hopefully not be that with the 7.4.1 set that I hope to release when I get back from vacation (Saturday or Monday, depending). I'm able to put my hand on RH 8.0, RH 9.0, RHAS 2.1 and RHAS 3.0 and RH 7.3 systems, if you need some help let me know. Sander Steffann has been building for most of those, except RHEL AS 3. I have an installed WBEL (White Box EL, a 'generic' linux distribution built from the SRPMS that Red Hat has in its enterprise directory). That box isn't a devel box, but I am building up (while I'm on vacation) a devel box. So I'll be building RPMs on that box with WBEL which should install on RHEL3. -- Lamar Owen Director of Information Technology Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute 1 PARI Drive Rosman, NC 28772 (828)862-5554 www.pari.edu ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html

I did the same back when I first got started do this from my own server. Then Marc allowed me to directly upload. I'll do it tomorrow, or is may be better do it for the 7.4.1 ? If you'll hold off a few days both 7.4.1 and 7.3.5 RPMs are due to be released. At that point building on various distributions and setting up torrents will be done. -- Lamar Owen Director of Information Technology Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute 1 PARI Drive Rosman, NC 28772 (828)862-5554 www.pari.edu ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
Re: [HACKERS] Little mess in RPM RH ?
Hi, Inside the RH9.0 coesist the 7.4.0-0.3 and 7.4.0-0.5 versions looking on other RH directory version I found that actually 7.4.0-0.2 7.4.0-0.3 7.4.0-0.4 7.4.0-0.5 are existing. Inside the SRPMS directory is present only the 7.4.0-0.2 version! This is because when I built the RPMs for RedHat there were little differences between the different RedHat releases that caused the builds to fail. I had to make minor adjustments for each platform, which is why there are so many different release versions. The contents of the RPMs is identical, only the build instructions differ. The SRPMs for all these versions are at http://opensource.nederland.net/PostgreSQL/. Lamar Owen (who creates the original SRPM) knows what has to be changed for each platform, so I am confident that we won't have this many release again for the next release. I'm able to put my hand on RH 8.0, RH 9.0, RHAS 2.1 and RHAS 3.0 and RH 7.3 systems, if you need some help let me know. Thanks for the offer. I can't do RHEL 3.0 yet, so if you could build the RPMs for that platform that would be great. I still have a RH 6.2 machine in case anybody still wants that. Thanks, Sander. ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
