Who's maintaining the ODBC configure and build stuff? There's a grave issue with ODBC linking in all kinds of makefiles, templates, header files, etc. from the main Postgres configure process. That creates problems for both sides: The main tree couldn't care less what ODBC needs tested and defined since it claims to have it's own configure script. I don't have a problem with ODBC having it's own configure script, if that's what's desired, but then it needs to be used unconditionally. Running the standalone and the integrated show at the same time doesn't work. I'd be more than happy to help fixing these issues but I just want to ask first who knows anything about it. One particular question is where the authorative source is: is it the PostgreSQL CVS or is it this psqlodbc-x.y.z.tar.gz file, whereever that came from? (Incidentally, I think the ODBC thing is simple enough to just use Automake on it and be done with it. Then we don't need any templates or port makefiles or whatever.) -- Peter Eisentraut Sernanders väg 10:115 peter_e@gmx.net 75262 Uppsala http://yi.org/peter-e/ Sweden
