  1. Problem building PostgreSQL 7.1 with readline-4.2

    Fazal Majid <fmajid@kefta.com> — 2001-05-01T01:05:21Z

    Apparently readline-4.2 gratuitously breaks backward compatibility by
    undefining filename_completion_function (now called
    rl_filename_completion_function).
    This causes the compilation of src/bin/psql/tab-complete.c to fail.
    Perhaps configure should be updated to detect this.
    
    Yours,

    I think this will be fixed in 7.1.1.

    Yup :-(.
    
    We have updated our configure checks for 7.1.1.
