I have recently downloaded 6.1 "official" version an compiled it.
Everything was fine, pg works great. Some questions :
1.
I saw that it is possible to modify the linux-elf template and set -m486
compilation flag in order to get a 486-optimised program.
Are there any compilation flags for gcc (am is using 2.7.2.1 version)
for Pentium or Pentium Pro processors ?
2.
My 6.0 version of pg was from a redhat rpm package. Working with psql
and using "arrow up" key, I was able to get into the editing the last
psql command. This last version (6.1) doesn't. I am doing something
wrong somewhere ?
Example:
template1=> select * from pers;
cod|nume |salariu
- ----------------+------+-------
10 |Vasile| 45300
20 |Ion | 192300
(4 rows)
template1=> ^[[A
3.
A rpm (RedHat package) is very simple to handle. Should the guys from
RedHat get on their ftp site a new pg 6.1 rpm soon ? I would suggest a
postgreSQL-6.1-486.rpm (486 optimised) (more people have 486 or better
computers). Let the 386 owners build their own binaries.
Please reply me directly ( teo@flex.ro ) or on the questions mailing
