1. No more RH7.3 RPMs?

   ow <oneway_111@yahoo.com> — 2003-05-29T11:26:00Z

   RH7.3 is a supported distribution for at least 6 months. Any plans to add
   Postgres 7.3.3 RPMs for RH7.3?
   
   Thanks

   By Red Hat, but not necessarily by us.
   That being said:

   Yes.  Please understand that I only have at my disposal machines running Red 
   Hat 9 (my personal notebook), Red Hat 8.0 (a couple of servers I admin), and 
   Aurora 1.0 (0.42) (my personal SPARC servers).  I do not have a RH7.3 box, so 
   I can't directly support RH 7.3.
   
   Please also understand that I am not being paid by anyone at this time to do 
   RPM releases -- it is a completely volunteer operation.
   
   That being said, I have volunteers who build RPMs for the older distributions.  
   RH 7.3 RPMs should be available today, with RH 6.2 RPMs possibly also 
   available today.
   
   Also please note that Red Hat doesn't support PostgreSQL 7.3.3 on Red Hat 
   Linux 7.3.  RHL 7.3 shipped with a different version of PostgreSQL, which is 
   the only version that they will support on Red Hat Linux, unless Red Hat 
   releases an errata through RHN for PostgreSQL.
   
   While I and Red Hat closely track on the contents of the RPMs, the RPMs 
   labeled with 'PGDG' are not in any way being made available by Red Hat 
   Software.  They are being made available by the PostgreSQL Global Development 
   Group.

   I have a few spare boxes, would you like a sort of crappy system (533
   Celeron,  15G HD) on which to compile and build?

   That would be me :)  Sorry I was a little slow with providing RH73 packages!

   Someone else has already built RPMs for RH73 and Lamar has already uploaded
   them to ftp.postgresql.org.  I just completed the RH62 packages. Lamar will
   put them on the FTP server, but until then they can be picked up from
   http://www.steffann.nl/PostgreSQL/v7.3.3/ if somebody needs them quickly.
   
   Bye!
   Sander.
