And Cooker has the src.rpm. I'm just using yours for now. Interesting: on my new laptop it builds *i686* rpms, since the Mandrake /usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc is very aggressive about matching the build machine. I have created a /root/.rpmrc to override this, but I'm planning on posting some optimized RPMs at postgresql.org. We might also want to consider building some non-locale-enabled RPMs so folks can get the speed boost if they aren't using non-ascii English. I've changed a couple of lines in the spec file; diffs included below. > Can you forward Mandrake's reply to me?? Sure.
