Still, we have problems here. I first created man.tar.gz,
postgres.tar.gz and ran gmake INSTALL HISTORY under doc/src/sgml and
moved them to top level directory. However, I am getting the following
error regardless I ran distprep or not:
$ make VERSION=8.4devel dist
rm -rf postgresql-8.4devel* =install=
for x in `cd . && find . -name CVS -prune -o -print`; do \ file=`expr X$x : 'X\./\(.*\)'`; \ if test -d
"./$file"; then \ mkdir "postgresql-8.4devel/$file" && chmod 777
"postgresql-8.4devel/$file"; \ else \ ln "./$file" "postgresql-8.4devel/$file" >/dev/null 2>&1 \
|| cp "./$file" "postgresql-8.4devel/$file"; \ fi || exit; \ done
cp: cannot stat `./doc/src/sgml/CREATE': No such file or directory
make: *** [distdir] Error 1
The problem is (as Alvaro stated me on Jabber), the space between CREATE
and AGGREGATE (there are a bunch of them actually). Checked GNUMakefile
and saw this in distdir target:
cp "$(top_srcdir)/$$file" "$(distdir)/$$file";
I thought quotes would help us here, but apparently it does not.
However, when I run ./configure and make dist, and then extract the
tarball, generate man.tar.gz with postgres.tar.gz, add these to the
previous tarball and rewrap it, it works. But I "want to" assume that it
is not the way that PostgreSQL tarballs are created.

I have zero idea why these scripts are not included in CVS...
